Full Bloom- The Flower Challenge

Welcome
You still have time to come and play along with us at 

Our theme this month is CAS, Clean and Simple.

http://theflowerchallenge.blogspot.ca/
You just have to go and check out the fabulous cards this month...very inspiring.

So onto my card.
I began by placing my card front into my Misti and stamped the flower image from Avery Elle in black Memento ink.  I stamped the image again onto another piece of cardstock, then die-cut it using the Stitched Dome die.  
Next, I loose watercoloured just the flowers on the die-cut using my Tombow markers.  I scribbled them onto my non-stick craft mat and picked up the colour using a wet paintbrush.  When the panel was dry, I pop dotted it over the blackline image to create a highlighted area that draws in the eye.
Using my Misti again, I stamped the sentiment and mounted it all over a piece of pink cardstock.


Hope you get a chance to come and play along with us.
Thanks so much for taking time to visit.
