Summer Card Camp 2 ~ Day 2

Well, I finished my card for day 2 last night but I'm uploading it today to the gallery. This was a different one for me because I don't do too many "cute" cards but it was fun! Making the circle card was something different to try. I used the resist technique by heat embossing the fence, the bear and the bee...then used my distress markers (Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass and Crushed Olive) and added a little water for a watercolor effect. I didn't have watercolor paper so it was a little more difficult, but it worked. For the background (brown) paper I used Core'dinations cardstock. I dry embossed it with wood grain texture and then sanded it a little to look like real wood. I used a little doily behind the smallest circle and inked the edges with chalk ink.

My daughter even joined in and made a circle card too. We found out today that my aunt and uncle had to put their dog down this afternoon. So...my daughter decided to make hers a "sorry for your loss" card. They will love it!

Here is mine:

Here is my daughter's card for the kid's gallery:

Hope you enjoyed our cards....I know we had fun making them!
