Stamplorations has a sketch and theme challenge for August - the theme is stamps and watercolor and here is my card with the sketch.
I smooshed distress inks onto the Stamplorations Bubbles stencil, spritzed with water and then laid a piece of watercolor paper on it - pressed it into the paper until the color was on the paper. Here is a video of this technique if you would like a better explanation. The background was then die cut with MFT stitched rectangle and bordered with SU crumb cake. The Altenew flowers and leaves were white embossed on vellum and colored with Zig clean brush markers. Sentiment is from Clearly Besotted. Added a few clear dots - done and dusted!
MFT's Summer School this week is all about color so I am also entering this in their "cool" color challenge.
Thanks for visiting today and love to read your kind comments. Betty
A beautiful background for a beautiful flower!
