Hi friends!!!! I am so happy that you stopped by today!I love Fridays, and when Fancy Friday combines with TGIF Challenges - it's even better! So - I am combining the two challenges/themes this week. I must say, I think they paired up perfectly! Please make sure that you go through the hop - there are some BRILLIANT projects! The #tgifchallenges design team has also made some gorgeous cards this week as well. (You can continue on the Fancy Friday hop at the bottom of the post. To visit the TGIF site, please click on the tic-tac-toe board below!)
The theme for this month's Fancy Friday is "Pick a Bundle", and I decided to pair that with the far left vertical line in the tic-tac-toe board. The bundle that I chose is the Follow Your Dreams bundle. It was my number one must have from the new catalog, and I am so glad that I didn't wait!
The base of this simple, "one layer" card is Water color paper. After spraying it with some water to prime it, I dabbed Coastal Cabana, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather inks onto the wet are to create the blended wash area in the background. Instead of stamping any of the images, I wanted the high contrast that I knew I would get from using the die cuts in the bundle. A small piece of Washi tape anchors the dies, pulling it together.
Just to make things a little easier for you, here is a list of supplies that I used for this card. I am so grateful when you choose me as your Demonstrator

Fantastic card Jeanna! Love the colours used in the watercolour wash. The black die cut and the silver are a fabulous contrast to the watercolour wash. Love it! Rochelle xo
