Paulina over at
Pretty Pink Posh is hosting a
Watercolour Blog Hop all weekend with some fab inspiration and prizes!
For my card I black heat embossed the
Penny Black Demure flower image onto watercolour paper and used Distress Inks in Seedless Preserves and Picked Raspberry to paint them. After the flowers were dry I added a layer of sparkle from my Wink of Stella Pen in clear.
I used Distress Inks in Mermaid Lagoon and Salty Ocean to watercolour the background and added a sentiment from the
More Fresh Cuts Stamp Set from WPlus9. The sentiment was black heat embossed onto vellum and I finished off with a sprinkling of Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
Thank you for visiting my blog today and thanks to Paulina for organizing the hop!
Gorgeous colours Sue :)
