I cut this white card just a little smaller than my white base card, and using my misti I stamped with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with WOW Metallic Silver Embossing Powder. I then watercoloured the flowers with a water brush using Distress Inks in Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves, Mowed Lawn and Walnut Stain. I then decided to cut around the outside edge of the flowers to add a bit more interest and in order to take the flowers closer to the edge I trimmed the layer down a little.
I finished by splattering some of the pink and green ink and heat embossed the sentiment again using the Metallic Silver EP.
Thank you for stopping to take a look today and I'll be back soon.
I am entering the following challenges:
CAS Watercolour May Challenge - Watercolour Flowers.
CAS Mix Up May Challenge - Stamping, Splattering and my choice Heat Embossing.
The Flower Challenge - No. 8 CASE a DT Member. I think mine is a CASEing of both TaeEun and Vivien, i.e. the opposite corner positioning of TaeEun and the cutting round the flowers on Vivian's card.
Country View Challenges - Flower Power.

Great idea to cut away the flowers, adds a lot of fabulous interest. Gorgeous stamp and such pretty colouring. Soft and gentle card with great splats x
Hi Pat! Been home for a few days but can't get my mojo going so nothing to share at all! Got an hour to myself now so am paying everyone a quick visit!
