I have three cards for you today.

For my first card, I used the fabulous Sketched Tulip and In Full Bloom Sentiments.

I stamped the Sketched Tulip  with black in my Misti, then 'painted' with Arteza real brush markers.  I used a bit of water mist, and a water brush, then added more color, continuing until I had built up enough layers.  Since I kept it in my Misti, I was able to add one final layer of the stamp details back in.

When dry, I used a paper mask to add color in a rectangle around the tulip, then the Scribble Rose Stencil to add more color to create the pattern.  











 


The verse, from the In Full Bloom Sentiments, was added with Archival fern green ink.  







 



Of course, no card is finished without an inside, so here it is...

CARD 2:
My second card features the Crabapple and the In Full Bloom Sentiments. 

 

I stamped the Crabapple  with VersaFine Claire nocturne ink, and loosely water colored it with Daniel Smith watercolors, then fussy-cut it.  I created a rectangle of soft pink distress ink on an A2 card front, and added the fussy-cut Crabapple in a die-cut frame.

 


I stamped the verse from Full Bloom Sentiments below the frame.  

Inside:
