CASology 146: Music

17 May

When I saw the CASology challenge for this week I knew I’d have to play along!  I’m hoping to make a few more cards before the challenge ends but I wanted to go ahead and share my first card!

I had my Gansai Tambi watercolors out for another upcoming card and decided to use them for this piano card!  I stamped the keyboard and sentiment in versafine and embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Then I covered the keyboard with frisket masking fluid.  Once the frisket had dried I watercolored the background with two different shades of purple.  I let the paint dry naturally and then I rubbed off the frisket revealing the clean white keyboard underneath!  To finish the card I added a sprinkling of sequins from The Ton! 🙂

I’m entering this card into the CASology Week #146 Challenge: Music!

Thanks for visiting…check back in a few hours for the newest Christmas Card Challenge!
