Bouquet For You

 

Bouquet For You…

   Hello Friends and welcome!  Today’s card features a lovely floral set from My Favorite Things (Freshly Picked Bouquet) and a loose watercoloring technique using Mijello Mission Gold watercolors.

  To start, I stamped image onto a piece of trimmed white watercolor paper using Versamark ink then white heat embossing image.  Next, I began watercoloring.  Using a loose technique, I added color using a wet brush applied directly to image, not worrying to much about light or shadows.  I moved over the image adding color to a certain flower/leaf then went back over adding a little more intensity of color, but not fussing to much.

  Once panel was dry, I then added color to the background by lightly ink blending Distress Ink Salvaged Patina using a ink blending brush.  I wanted a light color to add a little interest to the background but not to much.  

  To finish, I stamped sentiment using Versafine Clair pigment ink in Acorn, adhered panel to a cream card base using a piece of trimmed fun foam, then added a few dew drops embellishments from Pretty Pink Posh.  

  Thanks so much for stopping by…take care!
