And here’s my card:

hello lily card a

This is my first official entry as a CanYouCaseIt Design Team Member. I’m thrilled to be a part of such a talented group!

After stamping the flowers from the Remarkable You stamp set in black Staz-On ink on a piece of Watercolor Paper, I used an Aqua Painter and Early Espresso, Mint Macaron, and Hello Honey inks to watercolor the flowers and background. I was trying for that messy sort of watercolor look, but I still kept pretty close to the lines. I guess I’ll have to practice being messier – something I never thought I would say!

I used the Greetings Thinlits Dies to cut the word HELLO from a piece of Hello Honey card stock. I backed it with a piece of Mint Macaron card stock on which I drew lots of dots with an Early Espresso Stampin’ Write Marker.

An Early Espresso mat and a Hello Honey card base finish the card.

I made a Mint Macaron envelope using the 2015-2017 In Color Envelope Paper and the Envelope Punch Board. I adhered the leftover die cut HELLO with Multipurpose Liquid Glue (still my favorite adhesive!)

Here’s what I used:
