Summer Flower for CAS Watercolour

Edited to add that this card was a winner at
Simply Irresistible Challenge
by Heather Telford and The Foiled Fox.
Thank you so much ladies!
I'm so excited!

Hello friends.
Is June flying by as fast for you as it is for me?

Here's another summer watercolor card.

I've heat embossed some script stamping on a die cut square
and used a watercolor wash over it.

This sweet, bashful daisy was die cut from watercolor paper
and I used Tambi Gansai watercolors to color the stem and center of the flower.

A super simple, easy card!

There's still time to enter at 
Challenge is open until the 24th

The rest of the Design Team and our Guest Designers have
some more awesome Summer inspiration for you to check out.

Hope to see you in the gallery.

I'll also enter at 
Wishing you a belated birthday  AAA.

I love that die and the watercolor wash over you embossed central panel! It may be easy but the design is the hard part! Every time I see you use that die I have the urge to go get it!
