What a great technique! I need to try this out now 🙂
I like the watercolor technique a lot; it is a great one for summer time themes. Thanks for the inspiration Nicole!
Great tutorial! I can’t wait to try it. Where do you get the foam daubers?
These are so neat – wish someone would make one for me, ha-ha! Thanks for sharing your gorgeous cards.
Very Artsy card, Nicole! Looks like a fun MIM Challenge 🙂
This mixes my fave things right now – die cutting, water color, and bokeh ! Fabulous video, TFS 🙂
Stunning card..love the way you used the numbers!
Too bad I don’t own any PTI products (yet), since this looks like a lot of fun!
Wow, I have definitely been inspired to do this technique. You make it look so easy. And, it packs a punch. I am loving this whole watercolor trend.
I liked the number dies going off the edge, looked very cool, and replacing the centers, sure finished it off nicely.
Great look, it seems like fun. I am all about fun, that’s for sure. LOL
TFS, splendid splatting! LOL
Nichole! Just so beautiful – can’t wait to try it! [Me thinks this might be one of those techniques I become addicted to =]
These are Awesome!!! Thanks
What great fun! I am on my way to try this out!
I picked mine up at Hobby Lobby, so I am sure they are available in the stamping section of any major craft store! 🙂
I just wanted to let you know that we loved your two cards and we gave them a shout out on the Paper Crafter’s Library Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/papercrafterslibrary
I made an error linking! I didnt use papertrey products! delete mine, sorry!
great cards. . . love the number die.
Fabulous technique and gorgeous cards 🙂
Thanks, Nichole, for the lovely inspiration & the fabulous video!
My apologises…I posted a card #91 but sadly I didn’t read the requirements and don’t have any Papertrey products. Love the technique and great video thanks for your inspiration.
I love this technique! Thank you for sharing, the little water plops add so much visual interest and just plain fun.
