Today at Try it on Tuesday we have to use water colour.I chose to try the rock salt technique for my background using Dabbers in Willow,Lemonade and a touch of peach,sprayed card with plenty of water and painted on the colours, sprayed again and added rock salt, more water and left to dry overnight then brushed off the salt.I then stamped the Poppy from Indigo Blu and xcoloured the stamp with the fabulous Distress pens and huffed to stamp(fun) then coloured b/g with distress inks in tea dye and bundled sage,added a phrase i had in my stash and my card was finished.Do go and join in as the lovely people at One Stop Cards are sponsoring us and offer a £10 voucher for the winner.

what a lovely card, never herd of the rock salt technique, let alone tried it, but the colours blend lovely. Thank you for commenting on my blog, they are such lovely stamps.
