Watercolor Splattered Hello Card


I re-visited Watercolor Splatter Technique and made this card which will be entered into the following challenges:

1. CASology Week 116 - Splatter
       
2. Colour Me #41

 
3. Less is More #193 - One Layer Card, keeping it CAS and including 2 of something!

      
4. Virginia’s View Challenge # 8 Clean and Simple

  
5. Simon Says Use Watercolors

6. AAA Cards Game #24 Autumn Colors

  

Card Details

1. I used Distress Stains and Hero Arts Daubers to create splattered flowers and used paint brush to create water droplets.

2. Text stamp is by Simon Says Stamp.

3. I actually did a step-by-step tutorial about this technique back in 2009. Please check out here.

I must say I am still trying to get familiarized with this kind of CAS style. I think it's not bad. What do you think?

I can't believe this simple card won recognitions from two challenge sites, namely Take It Make It Challenge October Multicolored Stamping Technique and One Layer Simplicity Challenge #10 - Turning to Fall. Thank you, DTs.

The latter's remark is as follows:
Helen’s card is just so wonderfully done with lots of white space and multicoloured leaves. Thank you, Karen!
