AIR16 Vintage WC Thank You

I used the Vintage Watercolor Technique to create this card.
I stamped the strawberries in Vintage Photo Distress Ink and used a waterbrush to pull in the ink to color the image. I added red watercolor pencil to the strawberries and a yellow green to the leaves. The strawberry caps were colored using the vintage photo with Elegant Writer marker added. I also added a bit of Elegant Writer to the leaves. I masked most of the strawberries and leaves and stamped the lines background. There are splatters of brown and green made with the watercolor pencil and waterbrush. I inked the edges with distress vintage photo. I added water here and there and dabbed to further age the piece. The tag was done in the same manner. I mounted the vintage panel on brown card stock and attached to a 5x7 Strathmore Watercolor card. This was a fun technique and new to me! Thanks Jan! I am now properly warmed up!

Stamps : Me and Carrie Lou Strawberry Corner, SU sentiment
Ink : Vintage Photo Distress
Watercolor pencils : Staedtler
