You are my anchor


This is my attempt on doing some watercolor smooshing.

I added blue DIs, brusho and lots of water and just smooshed my paper around.
Before that I had heat set my stamped anchor and sentiment that translates "you are my anchor".

I added two silver sequins and a red one.


This card is for:
Inkspirational - Watercolour Smooshing
Addicted to CAS - Seaside
Happy Little Stampers Watercolour - Anything Goes + option of Smoosh

    This is a wonderful card, Pia. I like the way the smooshing looks like under water...just where you would see an achor!

    Beautiful blue watercolor smooshing! Just perfect for that stamp and with the touches of red! I have to try using smooshing for backgrounds, to make cards more simple...

    Hi Pia you've outdone yourself with this card! I always love it when a technique/colors/ingredients of the card reflect the theme of the card well and yours is just a perfect example of this. Smooshing really works with the maritime feel and the colors are perfect for the theme too. Great job! Thanks for joining us at Inkspirational!

    How pretty with the brusho background, Pia! It looks like real water for the anchor as it steadies its way to hold what's above it. Beautiful card! hugs, de
