More watercolour fun!

Hello bloggers!

I had another play with watercolour and salt. A few people asked how I made this background so I'll give you a description. I scribbled onto watercolour card with Tombow pens, spritzed with water and then sprinkled on some salt. It was left alone to dry naturally and then the salt was rubbed off. Et voila!

I used the lovely Maidenhair Fern stencil from Designs by Ryn with Inca Gold paint in Silver and the small butterfly from Visible Image. The sentiment is one of Sir Tim's!

I hope you like it! Thank you for visiting, big hug! Xx
