Welcome
What a fun month we have had at the
We are celebrating another wonderful friend's birthday.
Happy Birthday to Bonnie
Our theme is Bouquet of Flowers; add one to your watercoloured card.
This month we also welcome our talented guest Leslie from Running With Scissors.
So onto my card details.
I began with a piece of plastic kitchen wrap (leaving all the folds and wrinkled areas on it) and rubbed some Cracked Pistachio, Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feathers directly over that.
I gave it a spritz of water to blend, then pressed my paper into the wet ink. It left behind such a pretty design on my paper and was so quick and easy to do.
Next, using the new Stitched Circle die from PB, I cut a circle in the centre of my card front. I mounted that over my inked background and added a few die-cut wildflowers.
I stamped the sentiment then glued it onto a piece of light green, then onto a plain white card base.
Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.

Beautiful watercolored cling wrap background, Karen for your bouquet of wildflowers. I Love your new PB stitched circle window too. TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy
What a clever background, Karen! I can't wait to try that! I love the sweet bouquet of wildflowers! I love the pretty poppy card you sent too! I feel really special to be honored with two cards! Thanks so much for helping celebrate my birthday!
The inked cling wrap onto which you have pressed the paper has left such a great pattern on the background Karen, and the PB Stitched Circle aperture shows it off beautifully, also the white wild flowers emerging from it look so pretty, and the lovely blue coloured sentiment goes perfectly. x
Love this Karen, your blues are just stunning. Have been away and busy with new pup since home so hope to visit more often.xx
It’s beautiful, Karen!
Love your background and dies, such a beautiful card.

There you are with your beautiful blues and greens -- my favorite color combo for watercolor or blended backgrounds. A lovely card, Karen! We've been away camping so I'm just now able to check in. I could do Instagram on my phone, but not blogs. I sure did get behind!
