For the May challenge I chose this stamp set from Unity. I had my doubts as to how well it would color so I began by sponging a portion of the card with a few distress inks and a light touch and let it dry. Next I stamped and heat embossed and then decided to try and color the flowers with distress inks and water brushes and I liked it. I attached the piece with mounting tape to white card stock.That is it. The moral I guess is just keep trying because I honestly tried to sell this NBUS at the last card making group garage sale. Silly me.
Supplies:
Stamp set - Unity "Books and Blossums"
Inks - Distress inks, VersaFine
Other - 140# watercolor paper, embossing powder
Pretty card mf I like how you did the watercolour halo around the flowers...brings our attention to the image immediately.
