Welcome to another challenge at Stampavie and More #284 Our challenges run for two weeks and I hope you play along..
I got to chose the theme for this challenge.. I chose
WATERCOLOR BACKGROUND / OPT. ADD FLOWERS TO YOUR CARD
I love doing watercolor backgrounds so this choice was not hard. I used my Kuretake Gansai paints and watered them down and applied to the watercolor paper and let it dry.. I then got out my Flower Patch stampin up stamps set, dies and ink and stamped up a bunch of flowers and leaves.. I ended up not using them all but sure like what I did use. I used Simon Says border scallop die and the sentiment is from that same SU set. I added some Stampin up sequins and pearls. I mounted it on a green piece of cardstock. The black is just a backdrop for the photo so it stood out. This reminds me of spring with all the awesome colorful flowers that are blooming.
So grab your watercolors and make a background and add flowers like I did or something else that you love. I hope you play along. I love seeing what you make. Just have fun.
