I'm pleased to be a Guest Designer for the February CAS Watercolour challenge - thanks Loll, and Bonnie, for inviting me! This month, Marcia Hill is our hostess with the mostest - and she certainly has made it fun!
Marcia and I share a little love affair with any and all Pure Innocence kids … so happy to have this one to play with today, in my favorite shades of black:
MFT Sassy Skater and coordinating die. Sugar Pea Designs Thought Bubble
Lil' Inker's background die - unfortunately no longer available!!! and Stickles
for a bit of swooshing ice! Water colored with Distress inks: black soot, and festive berries.
Check out the sassy little sentiment inside:
LOL - somebody is going to get a
Valentine chuckle out of this!
I can't wait to see where Marcia's theme has taken her - I promise I haven't even sneaked a peek - wouldn't it be funny if she has used the same stamp?
Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you'll play along with me, and the gals at CAS Watercolour!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Michele! How fun for you and how fun is this card. Can you imagine how dizzy she might be if she actually made all those swirls in the ice?
