Now on to today's card which was inspired by Day 1 of Online Card Classes Watercolor for Card Makers: Exploring Mediums... I noticed after I made it just how similar it looks to the class header. :)

For this card, I took a piece of Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock and scribbled a rainbow of colour on it with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers before giving it a quick spritz of water using a Ranger Mini Mister. I was amazed by how quickly the colour spread and how vibrant the colour remained. Once dry, I adhered two layers of my hello sentiment die cut using Simon Says Stamp's Alphabet Blocks Dies. I then trimmed and matted my panel with Simon's Black Cardstock before adhering it to a Neenah Desert Storm Card that was stamped with Simon's Tiny Alphabet Background Stamp. Finally, I embellished the card with some sequins from Lucy Abram's gorgeous Shaker Selections.
