Again I have been inspired by all the lovely water coloured flower cards I have been seeing in blog land and had to have a go myself. I dusted off the old Hero Arts Hydrangea stamp and coloured it with some distress markers. I then stamped onto Water colour paper and blended the colours with a paint brush. It really gives a delicate look to the flower.
This card is for two challenges, The Simon Says Wednesday challenge Spring Flowers and the May Stamping Sensations Challenge Anything Goes.
Hope you are having a good week.
