Watercolor Week- Day Three

Hello! Welcome back to Watercolor Week. We are on Day Three, but if you missed Day One, you can find it HERE. Day Two can be found HERE. Okay, let's get right to today's card...
This card was quick and easy, just the way I like. I bought some Peerless Watercolors recently and I've been eager to try them out. So I picked the color Sky Blue and did a wash over the front of my Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I let it dry and did another wash on top to get more of an intense color. That's it. I told you it was quick and easy. :) 

I absolutely love the "creaminess" of the watercolor once it dries. Just gorgeous....
I decided to heat emboss my new favorite sentiment after the watercolor was dry. You could do this before using watercolor but I always get better results after. A good tip is to use an embossing powder tool before embossing because the powder will want to stick to the watercolor. To wrap up the card, I added a few Lawn Fawn and Neat and Tangled Sequins after I mounted it on some Lawn Fawn patterned paper and a Hero Arts Card.

Make sure you stop by tomorrow for Day 4! See ya soon...
