Just Because- The Flower Challenge

Good Morning and Welcome.

Time for another card for The Flower Challenge. 

This month out theme is:

For my card, I took a super simple approach.

I placed this stamp called Sketchy Florals into my Misti and stamped with black.  I stamped the flower part again onto another piece of cardstock and cut it out using a Spellbinder die.

I haven't watercoloured using my Distress Oxides yet but have read how others have loved using them for that, so I decided to give it a try. 

I rubbed the inks onto my non-stick craft sheet and picked up the colors with a wet paintbrush.  I found it worked best if I wet my paper first to help the inks flow and move better.  I have to say that they worked great.

When the circle was dry, I used pop dots to position it over the main stamped panel and stamped the sentiment from that same set at the top.  

To add some extra interest, I covered the flower with some clear Wink of Stella which is a shame that you can't see it in the photo.

There is still time to play along so I hope you will join us.

Thanks for looking.
