For my card, I used a stamp from Wplus9 Design Studio, Flora & Fauna. Wplus9 is a new company for me and I am seriously impressed with their designs, coordinating dies, and quality. This company is sure to be one of my new favs!
To create this card I embossed the image in white embossing powder (oh, on Inkssentials stamp paper...LOVE this paper! A stamper's dream!). I then used Distress Inks to watercolor the image. (Smear some ink on an acrylic block on non-stick craft sheet and then use a watercolor brush to pick up the ink.) The Specialty Stamp Paper held up amazingly well to the watercoloring...not even a hint of warping! Once I was finished coloring the flowers...I just couldn't bare to use DP on my card so I just mounted on orange cardstock and added a sentiment, from Sweet 'n Sassy.
So...how about some more fabulous artwork? Check out the goodies the eTeam are sharing and enjoy the hop!
