Pink Tulips

Hello stamping friends.

Today I'm sharing some cards that I did some time ago but never shared.

The first card was done for the CAS Watercolour challenge last month.

My friend Susan did a card that was almost the same

so I decided to wait to post mine.

I used a NBUS tulip stamp, inking it with Abandoned Coral and Mowed Lawn
and stamping on the smooth side of my watercolor paper.

Water from the Aqua Painter moved the ink around.

The MISTI made it possible to stamp again adding the lines back in
and I added some shading with the small end of the green Distress marker.

After adding a little dirt at the bottom to ground the tulips,
I added some brown from the brush to the leaves to give them a more realistic look.

There is a very light wash of blue in the background.

And a twofer....

This one was done with generational stamping. 

I stamped the tulips three times without re-inking.

It went in the mail last month.

It fits this month's CAS Watercolour Challenge too.

HINT OF PINK

This is kind of a big hint of pink.  I hope that's OK.

Enjoy!
