TAWS post #21 - Hello Dreamer!

Greetings TAWS friends!  Popping in today to bring you a watercolored creation using Wigwam and Big Chatter.  I started by stamping my image using Hero Arts black dye ink.  It does not run when wet so it's lovely to use water color with.  I first stamped the dream catcher and then wet the paper all over, including on top of the image.

Next, I barely added a touch of color to the feathers and let the water do the blending job for me.  I did the same with the background.  I would pick up color with my brush and barely touch it to the wet paper and it would blend and move for me.  Once I let it all dry, I added my cardstock layers.

My first layer is a very pale blue cardstock from one of my Studio Calico kits.  I folded the cardstock and tore it purposefully to have the raw or deckled edge showing.  I then added a layer of kraft cardstock and used my notebook punch along the bottom edge.  I added some stitching to pull it all together.  I used the TAWS set Big Chatter to add my giant sentiment, a strip of sparkly cardstock and some sparkly star stickers as a finishing touch.

I added some Wink of Stella pen to the center of the dream catcher for some added sparkle and I added some white Martha Stewart glitter around the very outer edge of the dream catcher for some dimension.

Thanks for coming by today!!
