Paper Sweeties June 2015 Release Countdown!

Hello and welcome back!  Today we are counting down to Paper Sweeties June Release.  

I made this card using the new set called Let's go to the Beach.  On a piece of watercolor paper, I first stamped the cloud, and embossed it with white embossing powder.  Next, i masked it and stamped my hot air balloon.  I also white embossed the hot air balloon.  I watercolored my cloud and hot air balloon.  For the wave, i stamped it with blue distress ink, then used a wet watercolor brush to soften the color.  The wet brush also pulled the color out from the wave line to create a gradient effect.  Lastly, i stamped the sentiment and adhered the panel on a blue card base.

Thanks so much, please come back tomorrow for the Release Party.  Don't forget to stop by other DT members' blog for more inspiration.
