I stamped this stamp with abandoned coral and crushed olive distress inks for the no-line watercolor technique. I used different shades of pink and orange for the flower, and greens for the stems and leaves. The stamp is Penny Black's Poppy Time. Background stamps and text are Penny Black stamps, as well. The background was stamped with antique linen and frayed burlap inks.
I stamped the happy birthday (from PB's salutations clear set) onto vellum and adhered, using the metal swirl piece to offset the swirls in the background. The dragonfly is from my stash of metal pieces, and I used it to offset and balance the other metal piece.
