Treats on Tuesday with Christine - La gâterie du mardi avec Christine


Hi Everyone, I have a simple card using this beautiful leaf and a salt watercolour background. The Salt background was create by making a spray of Nuance powders mixed with water and spraying onto watercolour card. While it was wet I sprinkled salt over the colours and let it dry. Once dry I brushed off the salt. The leaf was stamped using Versafine Clair and then coloured with pencils. I framed the image with an offset piece of black card stock which was out of my off cut box. Frames don't always have to fit perfectly.
