Something Green at Craft for the Craic

I'm very excited to be on the Design Team at new challenge blog - Craft for the Craic (Irish for fun)! Isn't that while we all started crafting - for the craic?  It's not just for cards or even just papercrafting - knitting, crochet, altered items, jewellery, sewing, baking - whatever you love to craft, we want to see it!

I've been admiring the watercolour cards trend around the blogs so for the Something Green theme I decided to use Broken China and Mustard Seed distress inks and let the Something Green happen where the two inks met.  I white embossed a Hero Arts flower and sentiment onto some Neenah white card, spritzed the card with water, then added the ink colours with a paintbrush.

As the colours blended, the Something Green appeared :)

I then dragged some more Neenah card through the ink splodges left on my craft sheet and punched some butterflies out of the blue-green-yellow colours on the card and mounted everything onto some Neenah Kraft cardstock.

Have a look at the wonderful variety of crafts the other Design Team members have created at their blogs -
