Watercolor Hello for CasethisSketch

Hi Everyone.  Happy Friday.

I have a very quick post for you tonight.   When I saw this great sketch at Casethissketch, I was inspired to use Nance's Paper Players challenge to create a CAS water color card.

Here's the sketch:

 
I began with a piece of watercolor paper and stamped my poppy in StazOn ink.  I briefly dried it with my Heat Gun and watercolored the flowers.  I then dried them and added some liquid rubber to the flowers to protect them from the watercolor background I was about to add.   I added water to the card base and various shades of green and blue.  I worked it until it was ready and then dried it with my heat gun.  Once it was dry, I rubbed off the liquid rubber from my flowers and die cut it with a stitched rectangle die.  
 
I die cut the "hello" from the Hero Arts Stamps & Cuts Hello set and inked it up with Gold Encore Ink.  I then covered it with Gold Embossing Powder and heat set it.  I then adhered it to the watercolored card base.  The whole thing was mounted onto a Neenah Solar White #110 card base.  
 
Here's my card:

I hope you enjoyed tonight's card ... I'll be back tomorrow with my Addicted to CAS card.  In the meantime, warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.

Hugs
