I decided to try a little watercolouring for my card and started by spritzing some water over the ink on an acrylic block. I painted stripes of colour, leaving a space between each one.
While the stripes were still wet I had fun flicking some of the leftover ink over them and onto the card. Then came the hard part - leaving it all to dry!
Back I came later in the day and stamped the beautiful dandelions on top of my watercolouring. The whole panel was then matted onto some coloured cardstock slightly off centre and down to the bottom right.
Supplies:
Stamps: Lavinia Stamps, Dandelions; Clearly Besotted, sentiment from Geometric Style
Inks: SU, crushed curry, elegant eggplant, garden green; Memento, tuxedo black
