It’s Day 5 for Online Card Classes ‘Watercolor For Cardmakers’ and I’m still very behind on my projects, but really enjoying this class!
I created this card based on Shari Carroll’s tutorial on Day 4. I used one of my all time favorite flower stamps by Hero Arts, and I love the ‘dreamy’ feel of the flower using water colors. The sentiment is from the 'Enjoy Today’ stamp set, and continues on the inside of the card which reads: “You are so thoughtful”.
I used distress markers for the flower and leaves and after cutting the front panel on an angle, I placed it on an embossed card base. It’s difficult to see on screen, so here is a close up of the embossed panel:
I would like to enter this card into 2 challenges: Addicted to Stamps for the theme ‘Clean & Simple’, and Simon Says Stamp Challenge for the theme 'Spring Flowers’.
