Blog Blitz & Mod Hex Background

Graduation, Watercolor

Thanks for joining us for another great day of Blog Blitz inspiration!  Aren't the newly released dies and stamps amazing?  You can see them all here.

I'm using the Mod Hex Background on my card today.  Since it's such a fun die I thought water colouring would go great with it.  And what better person to give it to than a young high school graduate!

I used Distress Inks to watercolour the card stock, then I flicked on some paint, die cut the hexagons and placed them back in their spots with foam tape.  And I couldn't resist adding a sprinkling of sequins!

The blog hop continues until April 25th with daily inspiration.  Leave a comment on all of the blog posts to win the product being showcased in that particular post.  I am giving away the Mod Hex Background!

Thanks for joining me today!
