MFT Color Challenge #96: Soda Pop

Good morning, cafe friends!

I made a birthday card for my nephew, Joe, today. I used the colors from the MFT color challenge to make this fun Soda Pop card!

I used the same Ziploc bag background technique I told you about yesterday. So today, I thought I'd show you how its done!

Here's what you need. Watercolors, brushes, Ziploc baggie, mini mister, and card stock.

You can begin by misting the ziploc bag, then with a wet brush, apply paint to baggie. You can mist again if you like.

Next, smoosh card stock directly onto the painted baggie, pressing firmly.

Lift and behold! Watercolor background!

I like to heat set front and back, flattening as I go, as wet card stock has a tendency to curl.

Next, I took a wet brush dipped in paint and did a little flicking over the card stock for a spotty effect,

Easy peasy!
