Soft Seafoam Watercolour Card

Hey Everyone! 

I'm back today with this week's Artful Stampers Colour Challenge. I'm happy to be able to finally craft again, after doing 4 1/2 weeks of night shift! 

The colour for this week is:

I've been craving and itching to do a watercolour background and I finally had an excuse to do one! So that's what I have done this week, I love the effect watercolour backgrounds give, and how simple and easy it is to achieve. 

Here is how it turned out: 

How gorgeous is that? I was originally going to emboss in white first then do the watercolour background over the top, but I didn't like my first attempt, (and I may have overheated my heat tool and couldn't be bothered to wait for it tool cool down) so I decided to do the water colour background and stamp over the top. My piece of watercolour paper was still damp when I stamped on top so It made the ink bleed a little, but that's ok because I actually like it.
