Under the Weather

Under the Weather

This colourful 5"x7" card is sure to brighten anyone's day.  First layer a heavy weight piece of white cardstock a 1/4" smaller than adhered to base of card using foam dimensional tape 129020.  Then cut a piece of watercolour paper 6 1/2" x 3".  This is where the magic begins.  We used our Blending foam tool 360105 or 344689 and foams with Peacock Feathers 399378 and Salty Ocean 399383 Distress inks to colour the background then misted the paper with water using a fine mister 477919.  We then used a heat tool 278858 to dry the watercolour paper.  The Umbrella's are a Spellbinder's In'spire die we cut them out of heavy weight white cardstock then inked them using our blending tool and foam and Distress Inks in the colours of Mowed Lawn 399382, Mustard Seed 277414 and Picked Raspberry 399381.  After placing and gluing the umbrellas on card we used Glossy Accents 451944 to create realistic water drops.  Our Sentiment "Feeling under the Weather?" is by Whipper Snapper 526351and is stamped using Jet Black Archival Ink 121277. 
Tips & Tricks:  Allow glossy accent medium to air dry, please do not use a heat tool to try to speed up the drying process of the Glossy Accents they will bubble up and flatten.
