Hugs Card by Isha Gupta
Hello and Welcome! It's Isha sharing a clean and simple spring themed card with you using the new Spring 2019 stamps and dies. I am longing for spring after the long winter, so it was natural to think of florals and butterflies keeping the crisp clean breeze in mind :)
I started by creating a white watercolor cardbase. I then added various paint colors to it, concentrating towards the center. I then added a few splatters too. Let this piece dry. Meanwhile, I die-cut the butterfly and the floral wreath. I adhered the wreath to a piece of vellum.
I added color to the butterfly front and back layers, once dry, I layered them together and finished it by adhering a gemstone. Adding that pop of pink really gives this card that extra something :)
I stamped the sentiment in the center and adhered all the pieces to the card.
Here is a close up
Easy isn't it? Just keep a lot of white space and you will have a fun, airy CAS card, Hope you got inspired by this card. Have a wonderful crafty day!

So pretty with the ring of flowers and butterfly with the watercolor background.

So pretty, I can see doing this technique in the reverse. Keep the card base white and then watercolor the ring of flowers. That would also make the colors pop. I would love to win this die set. Thank you for the chance.
