Softpencil Blog Hop

Today is the first every Softpencil blog hop! YAY! How fun is that? You should be joining me from Tracey's blog. If not, go back to the Softpencil blog to start the hop!

If you didn't already know, World Card Making Day is tomorrow and we are getting ready to launch our weekly challenge over on our PCP group. It's gonna be so fun! You should join the group to keep up on all the details!

This week's challenge is to WATERCOLOR and we are using this beautiful Rose image. I call it the "DT is trying to kill Ashley" challenge. I DO NOT watercolor. I don't even have water coloring stuff. I just smushed some ink onto the lid of a couple of SU pads and went at it with a paint brush from one of those cheapy dollar store packs. Please don't be offended at my horrific attempt at watercoloring, I did what I could and tried not to be a spoil sport.

Your next stop on the hop is KERRY'S blog.

  6. Horrific is not a word I would use to describe this card. No-one would ever know that you don't do watercolour. It is lovely.
