I created a card with a fun background with the refills and it is so easy to do. You can create an array of backgrounds and each one will be different.
How to:
- Take a piece of Watercolor cardstock.
- Using a spray bottle, spray the paper with some water.
- On a smooth surface add a couple of drops of colour.
- Apply the paper to the surface and dab the colour on to it.
- Leave to dry.
- Finish with a sentiment.
You can see how I created the background of this card in the video below:

like die embossing - different look is nice.
Wow! So quick!
I couldn’t be happier that I can get refills now! I love the cards you’ve made using them and I’m inspired by your designs as well!
I love the card, but the sentiment is priceless! I have a sister who when I send her cards, she never acts as if they are good enough for her. I need to find this sentiment to stamp someplace on her cards..
Hi Lilith, Your card is terrific! I can't wait to try the refills to. Ake a background just like this. Thanks so much for the video!
