I hope those of you affected by the recent hurricane are safe and have escaped minimal damage. I'll tell you, that storm is like the house guest who will never leave. :) So, let's forget about that storm for a bit and let's talk about crafty things.
Your Next Stamp's Friday challenge is up and running and it's all about celebrating. I have made a card that can be used for a generic celebrate card using the Simply Circles and Whatnot Sentiments 5 sets.
I decided on a watercolor look with the circles for my background. I did not use watercolor paper for this, just plain white cardstock. I first stamped the image with some distress inks and lightly sprayed the inked up image with water before adding it to the paper. This gives a nice deep coloring with a hint of water marks. I thought it came out pretty good without being too messy. Once I had the background how I wanted it, I stamped the sentiment across the middle and finished the card with a few YNS Crystal Clear and Sparkle Gumdrops.
