I hope you and your loved ones are well.
There's still time to join in at CAS Watercolour.
Susan is hosting this month and she chose...
Susan says: "I am looking for SPRING flowers - not just any flowers.
So please think snowdrops, daffodils, tulips, crocuses,
apple and cherry blossom, dogwood, etc."
I've inked this wonderful stamp from Technique Tuesday with Distress
Markers and stamped on Mixed Media paper. You may recognize it as the
same flowers on my March calendar page.
Using the MISTI makes it possible to ink small sections and blend
with water then stamp again.
If you like your cards brighter, here's another version for you.
Our Design Team along with our Talented Guest Designer, Vicky have
wonderful examples of Spring flowers to inspire you.
I hope you'll check us out and share your watercolor Spring flowers with us at
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

LOVE both versions Bonnie! The 1st cards says Spring a little more softly whereas the 2nd card says Spring a bit more loudly, but I love both! Really like how the hemstitch die frames both cards too! I know it will be different this year, but wishing you Easter Blessings this weekend my friend! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Bonnie...you sure have perfected your water coloring with the Misti technique. Interesting how different the 2 cards look with the one using the Strawberry Slush embossed mat...one thing can make such a difference. Love that Hemstitch rectangle die!
ReplyDeleteMay you have a joyful Easter, my friend, even though things are so very different this year.
Beautiful cards Bonnie, so nice to see these beautiful spring flowers. I hope you're keeping safe.
