The colors for The Flower Challenge are pink and brown and finally had some inspiration today and sadly, even a reason to make this card.
I watercolored the bouquet with Karin markers - just used pale pink for the flowers, but different shades of brown for the various leaves. Before coloring, I embossed the bouquet with rose gold ep. For some added texture, I dry embossed the card base with a striped cover die, used foam tape to mount the bouquet, added a few brownish sequins and the sentiment and done!
I am also entering my card at CAS Mix-Up Challenge as I used embossing with a die, wet embossing and watercoloring.
Thanks for dropping by today.
