This is my second blog post of the day. Wow, don't usually do this many in a row....lol. This card was made for the Power Poppy March Challenge - give it a little shimmer with GOLD, and the Mod Squad Challenge - make your own background.
Here's my card:
I have been obsessed with watercoloring flowers lately. Can't get enough of it. The background is made on watercolor paper with Distress Inks. I love the look of all the splotches. I used the masking technique to stamp the flowers in a cluster. Then fussy cut them out after coloring.
