Hello, all! Today I have more inspiration using with September 2019 Card Kit from Simon! :) The large flowers in the Look For Rainbows stamp set from the kit are gorgeous! I decided to focus on just one of the flowers and watercolor it white.
(Wondering what I used in this video? Everything is linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this post, or in the text below. Compensated affiliate links used when possible).
After stamping the flower, stem, and two leaves onto watercolor paper in waterproof black ink, I started painting the flower using two light shades of Distress Ink: Shaded Lilac and Pumice Stone. By keeping the shading very light, and most of the petals remaining white, this makes the flower look both white in color and with a bit of dimension.
To finished off the coloring, I used Mustard Seed for the center of the flower, and Crushed Olive, and Forest Moss for the stem and leaves.
I loved the idea of a white flower in front of a very colorful background, so I used a sheet of the patterned paper included in the kit. I cut it out with the A2 Layers dies from Waffle Flower and then cut off the bottom at an angle and adhered it to a white cardbase.
I adhered the watercolored flower and leaves to the card, and then added a stamped greeting from the stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by today! You can pick up the September 2019 Card Kit HERE, or subscribe to receive future kits HERE.
