Watercolour Flowers

Hello there, today I have a card to share that I made for my mum's birthday last week. My mum loves flowers so I went with some watercolour flowers for her card. I first took some TH Watercolor Cardstock and cut this using the ME rectangle Index Card die. I then took the ME Sweet Havana stamp set and stamped the individual stamps using TH Distress Markers. I just took the marker and went around the edge of the image and the stamped.

 
I then took an acrylic block, added some more colour to it with the markers and picked this up with a wet watercolour brush. I then painted in all the flowers as well as the pot, ground and shadow. For the flowers I added some clear Wink of Stella on top. I then stamped the sentiment from the CBS Nouveau Flowers set using TH Seedless Preserves ink. This panel has been added to a vellum piece cut using the larger scallop die form the ME Index Card set and then to a PTI Soft Stone card base.
 
 
 SUPPLIES:

DISTRESS MARKERS: Pumice Stone, Antique Linen, Frayed Burlap, Tumbled Glass, Bundled Sage, Crushed Olive, Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn, Forest Moss, Milled Lavender, Dusty Concord, Seedless Preserves.
 
I really like how the watercolouring came out on this one :) Thanks so much for visiting me today, have a lovely day!

  6. Oh Michelle - this is so very lovely! I do not have the stamps you use but similar ones so will give it a go. The vellum accent is so very feminine - nice touch!
