We're doing watercolor wash at CAS Mix Up.
This stamp set was a birthday present from my dear friend, Loll.
After stamping and heat embossing, I painted with Gansai Tambi watercolors.
For the wash, I pulled color from the flowers and stems adding more color as needed.
Finally, I added a light splatter with Deep Violet.
There's still time to join in at
CAS Mix Up
I used stamping, heat embossing, watercolor, watercolor wash and splatter.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

Beautiful card Bonnie. I guess I took the summer off from challenges and just submitted some cards to the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. I am ready to get back to watercolor. :) Barb
Gorgeous heat embossed and watercolored flowers, Bonnie. Your watercolour wash adds such a beautiful soft background for your flowers. TFS my friend. Hugs...
Love the beautiful shades of mauve and purple in the flowers - perfect with the white heat embossing! Lovely wash and splatters to finish it off.
Just love your purple flowers, Bonnie - perfect with the green wash!!
This card is beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeutiful Bonnie. Love the soft colours you used and what a gorgeous stamp you used here. Lucky you to have Loll as a crafty friend.
This card is even more amazing in real life ... I feel so special to have received it. Gorgeous watercolour, my dear friend! xx
Wow, your card is gorgeous Bonnie. Love the pretty purple flowers.
Bonnie this is So beautiful! Love the soft wash in the background. I'm fascinated by watercoloring, something I struggle with. You did a superb job on this!
Beautiful card, Bonnie! Love the purple and green...soft yet rich look. And the wash background with the splatters sets off the image so well. As always, you hit a home run with water coloring.
Gorgeous flowers and way to rock the purple! Lovely card :)
This is amazing Bonnie - love it.
So pretty Bonnie. Love the colours.and the beautiful wash background. Trina xx
Beautiful card, Bonnie. You have a light touch with the wash and the spatters add so much.
Elegant soft watercolour wash, Bonnie! I just wondered if your Gansai Tambi paints are the same as mine - your colors are so beautiful. ;-P Hideko
So very pretty and beautifully water coloured. This is one delicate and amazing card x
so pretty..love the look!

Great watercolor painting, Bonnie. I love the blurred background, which makes the flowers look as if they emerged from the mist. I also love the color scheme of the card. I'm sure the picture does not reflect all the beautiful aspects of the card. Loll said that the card actually looks even more beautiful, and I think the same.
Hugs,

the flowers are so pretty in purple, and I love the waterccolour wash background :)
