Neat and Tangled September Release Day One | You're Pretty! + watercolors

Hey there, welcome to the first day of the September Neat and Tangled release. The first stamp set up is called You're Pretty and it really is.  I love all of the different sentiment possibilities included in this set. The beautiful, bold script is perfect for so many different types of cards.

To create this card I used the Neat and Tangled You're Pretty and Wild Ones stamp set to create this fun birthday card. The base of the card was watercolored with a splash of Distress Oxide Ink in Worn Lipstick and Wilted Violet. I kept it very light by using quite a bit of water. The sentiment was stamped with Versafine ink in black. The cute turtle and balloon were watercolored with Distress Inks. A sprinkle of the new sequin mix from Neat and Tangled finish off the card. ard, some with a bit of foam tape for lift. 



Neat and Tangled will be giving away a You're Pretty stamp set. To enter, leave a comment below to be entered. Tell me what's your favorite watercolor brand is. Visit the Neat and Tangled blog on Friday for a list of winners. Good luck and thanks for stopping by!

  15. This is such an adorable card !! The turtle is irresistible and I really love the watercolor background. Regarding to your question, it's hard for me to answer since I'm very much a newbie to card making and watercolor. But I've bought some Neocolor 2 and some Derwent water colour pencils and I like them both equally, so far.
