And how nice of Curtain Call to design their current challenge just for me! Here's my first play with this fun set:
supplies: Stampendous Build a Bouquet, Spectrum Aqua Florals and Essentials watercolor markers, water brush, tumbled glass distress marker, PTI tiny tags and Friendship Jar sentiment, Pretty Pink Posh sequins, silk lavender ribbon, Penny Black cardstock, watercolor paper
I white embossed, watercolored, and fussy-cut the flowers and leaves from watercolor paper, but the vase I stamped right onto the background panel and carefully watercolored it in. Then I played with my flowers and leaves until I had an arrangement that pleased me, and then I glued them down. I think these flowers are meant to be hydrangeas, but here and at this time of year, they make me think of 2 little handfuls of violets.
Lovely coloring! Great card. :)
