Tree


This card is for the current challenge at CAS Watercolour card challenge which is "Trees".

I used some watercolour paints on yupo a while ago and this is some of the off cuts I had. I used a Hobbyart set of stamps and looking at the patterns on the paper thought the placement of the tree looked like it was in a landscape with the sun peeking through. I just did a couple of squiggles with a fine liner to ground the tree.

I used CE black gloss art card cut with Gummiapan stitched nesting rectangles from Swedish House Crafts.

Yes the watercolour background sure does look like a landscape, with the sun peeking through. Very striking colours and the pop of black looks fabulous with it...Wonderful card x.

I've never tried water colors on Yupo paper either, but I am definitely going to try it after seeing your beautiful results! I love blues and greens together and they are absolutely perfect for a background for your tree silhouette! Lovely card Linby and thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour!! :0)
