This was actually my first card made using stamps from this release, so does that make it my favorite?  It's called WATERCOLOR WREATHS

I found it Lovely to ink up with Zig markers.
  • Popping the large wreath image into the mini MISTI, I selectively colored the blooms and leaves with Zig Markers: 202, 021, 041, 050, 053, and gave it a light spray of water, then stamped onto BRISTOL SMOOTH White CS. 
  • Opened up the MISTI and re-colored where it was needed, sprayed and stamped again. I continued these steps until I was happy with the saturation of color.
  • Then I took a clean water brush and pulled the pink color from the blooms to give more of a hand-painted look.
  • The sentiment is inked with RED SANGRIA dye ink. 
  • Trimmed and layered with the Double Stitched Square Dies (Small)
  • Embellished with PINK LEMONADE Couture Mix

For my next card I used the similar in style PEONY TERRACE BACKGROUND cling.

With the original MISTI and DISTRESS watercolor PAPER;
Hope you join us tomorrow for the BLOG HOP. We have an amazing line-up of GUEST Artists! As well as our Design Team:))
