NSD at Studio Calico!
Friday, May 3, 2013 
The fun has started! Studio Calico just kicked off the NSD fun on their blog!
There are 9 total challenges with examples for Scrapbooking, Card, and Project Life for all of them! Check out the blog post for info on how to participate and how to win the grand $100 prize!
I took on the challenge of mixed media and I made 3 different cards showcasing it on this PL spread!
Week 14 Card: I placed thickers on a blank 4x6 grid card and painted over with watercolor on a small brush - super easy and fun!
Excellence Card: To create the ombre effect I loaded up the water color paint and applied it several times to the bottom of the card slowly blending it up with more water. As I got to the top all that was on my brush was water. Once it dried completely I printed over it with my quote!
Love Lives Here Card: I painted a base of gesso over a printed PL card. Once the gesso was semi-dry I applied some water color on top of that. Once dry I layered it up with a cut file!
Now your turn to give it a try! It’s easy and fun I promise! I used the Artist’s Loft watercolor set from Michaels
Happy NSD!
