I used watercolor paper to create these cards.

 

For Club CK - Card Challenge April 14-20, 2013

  



 

Can someone please tell me how to call this paper? *embarrased* It's a kind of heavy tissue paper use to wrap flowers. A mulberry paper? I don't know, I'm not sure...Anyways, I used this paper to create this "Happy Bee Day" card.

 

 

Prepare your sheet.

 

 

Lay a mask/stencil on top.

 Mist with your favorite color spray ink.

 Let it dry completely.
