Wonderful Things...
  Hello friends and welcome!  Today's card features this pretty stamp set from SimonSaysStamp (best mom ever) and watercoloring using Daniel Smith extra fine watercolors.  To start, I die cut cross stitched oval (MFT's) using Strathmore hot press watercolor paper, stamped sentiment, and then randomly stamped flowers, gold heat embossed.  I next, watercolored images and background using a light wash of color then going back over adding shadows and depth of color.  I set panel aside to dry, then stamped background using scribbled circles BG (MFT's) using Coral Crush hybrid ink (MFT's). To finish, I splatttered gold watercolor and white gouache across oval panel, assembled elements and adhered to card base.  Thanks so much for stopping by...take care!  Please note: this card has been submitted to the current SimonSaysStamp Wednesday Challenge blog and this month's "Work It Wednesday".
