Seattle in Watercolors

I was so inspired by Sandie's fab London skyline card that I immediately adapted it to funky Seattle.  It was so very easy to do.  I masked off the skyline then randomly added Peerless watercolors, working quickly to keep it nice and wet when I removed the mask and set the card vertically to dry.  I did create some wet lines below the skyline to encourage the watercolor to travel.  I grounded the scene with a black strip at the bottom.  Love!

The Details:  Savvy Seattle Skyline die, Impress sentiment, Peerless watercolors, VersaFine Onyx Black, Strathmore Cold Press 140lb watercolor paper
