AAA Cards #84

Hi There,

I hope you are all having a fun weekend and ready to join in our new challenge at AAA Cards.

Today our theme is

 'Clean and Simple Watercolour cards'

Here is my card:


I heat embossed this splatter flower image and then used yellow water colour paints for the centre splashes. I then lightly outlined the embossed flower with a mix of blue and yellow water colour paints to give me a very light green. The die cut sentiment is cut from fun foam to pick up the yellow centre colour. The die is from STAMPlorations and the flower from Visible Images

Our sponsors for this challenge are Uniko-the winner will get their choice of stock stamps-check out thier amazing store here

I will enter this into:

  13. Ah Sandie - trust you and your love of stamping to even find the perfect stamp image that represents watercolouring even with minimal watercolouring. I love it!! The yellow is such the nicest bright bam of yellow too - against the black flower it works so well. Jenny x
