It's certainly been a while since my last post. Not intended but life just gets in the way some times. I haven't been totally slack though as I have been busy making Christmas cards but more of that in another post.
Today's card is for The Flower Challenge # 2 -
I pulled out a MFT set that I hadn't played with for a while & made a couple of cards. This was my favourite of the two. I used Distress Markers to colour the stamps & stamped onto watercolour paper that had been spritzed with water. I pulled out some of the colour with a wet paint brush to create a soft background & also added a little extra distress ink to the flowers for a bit more colour. A little black Stickles was added to the flower centres & then finished with a SSS die cut & stamped sentiment.
Thanks so much for tasking the time to visit.
LOVE the watercolor look Rose!
