Watercolor Lifting Technique Sympathy Card

 Monday's Technique Lover's Challenge on Splitcoast was Watercolor Lifting.  

 have been wanting to give it a try, so here is my first attempt.  

I used distress markers to scribble the watercolor paper and then used water with a brush to smoosh the colors together.  Then I clear embossed the little flowers and butterflies from the new ODBD set called Vintage Bird Labels.  Then I smooshed the colors some more with water to get this final result.  Kinda cool to have the embossed images darker than the rest of the strip!  I glued this strip down to a piece of Birthday Brights paper and cut the panel out with a Pierced Rectangle.  The stamped 'WITH' and the die cut word 'Sympathy' are from the new With Sympathy stamp/die duo set.  I added a Bitty Border to complete this CAS card!

Here are the ODBD supplies I used for this card:
