I decided to use my water brush pens inking up the stamp with the different colour pens, spritzing and then stamping in one go. I added the branch to the left and then some to the right and decided to fill in the area top right with a little more but second generation. It actually didn't stamp as well as I wanted so I used some of the pen with water on my glass mat and added the colour. I have to say my flowers are a bit brighter than your average magnolia but I'm using artistic licence here..lol. I added a little background blue for sky again using a waterbrush to apply the brush marker, and then I finished with a sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink clear heat embossed with WOW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder.

A gorgeous card Pat, love your pretty colours and the layout, nicely watercoloured. Thanks for sharing with CAS Watercolour, Robyn
Lovely card Pat. I have tried inking/spritzing all the elements of the stamp in one go with my Arteza Waterbrush Pens and mine didn't turn out too well cos I think I took too long in between inking and stamping and the colour had dried quickly! (Back to inking each element separately for me......)
Absolutely gorgeous card at, I love the floral image and your beautiful watercolouring, you've added some lovely shades, beautifully CAS designed.
Hope you are coping well and keeping safe, Kate x
Ah yes, I recognise this stamp, I own it too. Lovely work Pat, so appropriate for springtime! Lovely coloring on the blossoms!
Artistic licence is good Pat!!
This is such a prettily coloured floral creation using one of my favourite PB slapstick stamps and using my preferred method of inking up as well , thanks so much for joining in with our 'Flowers and Showers' theme at Allsorts challenge this week and also our April challenge at Penny Black and More challenge.
Stay safe and well,

Beautifully done, Pat - lovely colours and yes, magnolias bloom in the spring - there are lots of them blooming now in Vancouver. Great layout with the sentiment going diagonally between the branches. Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Watercolour.
I can just see myself standing under this beautiful flowering tree, Pat! I think it's gorgeous the way you've colored it and with the sediment nestled in the branches! Take care and keep safe! Hugs, Darnell

Just stunning Pat! Beautifully coloured - and a little artistic license never hurt anyone! Actually it reminds me of when you're wearing sunglasses and then you take them off and all the colours look so lovely and bright! Vicky x
