Coarse sea salt was the special ingredient for this month's CAS Watercolor. For this challenge, I washed red and yellow watercolors on watercolor paper and added the salt. When it dried, I brushed off the salt and cut it with the Hero Arts die. Then I layered it on coordinating papers from My Favorite Things' Watercolor Wash Brights 6x6 pad, adding the "carpe diem" diecut from Joy Crafts.

Ohhh, I like your combo of watercolor and paper! I would almost think it was the reverse -- die cut designer paper, watercolor background -- but no. Beautiful results with wonderful colors!
Your wash made beautiful leaves, Evelyn! Love them against the soft background! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Watercolour!
OMG Evelyn, Love your leaves die cut from your watercolor wash background. So much texture and depth. Your DSP was perfect for your ferns. TFS and joining us again at CAS Mix Up. Hugs
