Round the watercolour world

I have more watercolour die cuts to share. This card has a much higher fiddliness factor than the previous ones and has convinced me that I should never video myself making a shaker card! Rather than trying to describe my trial and error process for making this shaker card I will just list the layers I used from little die cuts right down to the card base. The mini community and ‘the world’ were cut from brusho panels.
watercoloured ‘mini community’ & ‘love to travel’ die cuts with stick-it adhesive on the back

acetate
foam with circle die cut from centre

I saved the little die-cut bus and cars to put inside the shaker area with the glitter, sequins and micro beads. It wasn’t until I started shaking it that I realised the bus and cars would end up in countless pile ups!
Supplies:
Stamps: Sprinkles and Smiles (PB)
Die: Mini community Love to Travel (PB)
Paints: Brusho (Colourcraft)
Cardstock: Fabriano 100% cotton hot pressed watercolour paper, Neenah solar white, Neenah epic black
Also: stick it adhesive sheet, glitter, sequins, micro beads

Looks like a fun card! Too much fiddling for me but I sure enjoyed the concept and your efforts.
This is a great design Heather and the watercoloured pieces used for the die cuts work really well and the shaker element is a very interesting twist. A fabulous card! x
This very symbolic card! Black background great emphasizes colors in watercolor. Great idea. Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
It’s an Ottawa traffic jam right inside your card! (Or perhaps a Sussex sinkhole?) I really love this.
Super cute card. Great impact!
