Hello lovely Crafty friends,
Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team. Each month will have a different theme and this month’s theme is using Tips or Techniques.
I used watercolour background with Mixed Media.
I created this technique by combining watercolour with mixed media elements like stamping, stencilling, and texture paste. Starting with a soft watercolour base, I layered in different mediums to add depth, texture, and artistic flair. It’s a fun and creative way to bring extra life to your projects!
Here is my card
