More Resist for CAS Watercolour

We're halfway through the month already.

There's still time to enter at CAS Watercolour Card Challenge.
It's open until the 24th.


This month's challenge


I fell in love with the sweet flowers from this Simon Says Stamp set when I first laid eyes on it!

I stamped and heat embossed one of the flowers.
(LOL, The first time I did it the stem was about 1/2 inch to the side of the flower.)

The watercolor was done with my Gansai Tambi Watercolors. I'm still trying to get used to them.

Check out the samples from all the wonderful Design Team and our talented Guest Designer, Deepti.

 I hope to see you in the gallery.


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Beautiful card Bonnie. Love your soft watercolour of that sweet flower and stem. I love how you faded out the colours in the background. xx

Your flower is so soft and dreamy Bonnie, and the white on black sentiment tab is just the contrast it needs. Really beautiful! x

A delightful card, Bonnie. I have had my eyes on this stamp set for a long time, and this week it finally arrived at my house, together with the similar winter set. I snagged them during the Black Friday sale. Yay!

This is SO pretty Bonnie! I have been eye balling that stamp set for awhile, and now I think it needs to go in the cart! And I think you're doing just fine with the new water colors...lovely, lovely card!! :0)

Love the way the colours are more intense on the petals and leaves, and then fade out - a beautiful card!

Bonnie, watercoloring is the most difficult coloring technique to me and what a gorgeous job you did on this. Love the soft colors and the wonderful background wash matching your artwork!

I fell in love with this stamp set too when I saw it, but when I went to order it, it was out of stock. I took that as my cue that I didn't need it. But it is still calling my name after all this time. lol So might have to try and buy it again! Love, love, love your watercolored card Bonnie! It is beautiful! Hugs, Brenda
