Ice Cream Birthday

Hi there! Here's some homework for Day 2 of the Online Card Class Watercolor for Cardmakers. Today's focus for me was practicing some no-line watercoloring. Wow, it's not as easy as it looks! This card is also an entry for the Lawnscaping Challenge #114, One Layer Card. http://lawnscaping.blogspot.com/2015/09/hi-there-welcome-back-to-another.html 

 

The ice cream and spoon are from the Treat Yourself stamp set from Lawn Fawn. The bowl and sentiment are from the Baked With Love stamp set, also from Lawn Fawn. The balloons are from the Party Animal stamp set from Lawn Fawn as well. The giant ice cream swirl and cherry are from the Mama Elephant Carnival Cupcakes stamp set. I used Distress inks and a #2 brush from Winsor &Newton for the card. I added some splatter to make it look more like a party with some Teal Color Shine from Heidi Swapp. That's it for today. Thanks so much for the visit. I'll see you soon!
