Stippled Blossoms Live Simply

I've been playing with my Stippled Blossoms stamps again.

I hadn't thought of using these flowers in this type of layout

until I saw this card by Lesley of Always Playing with Paper.

I was demonstrating this stamp with some friends on Saturday

and this what came of it.

I love how easy this is to "paint".

I stamped the solid flower in a very light pink and used

the Stamp-a-majig for placement to overstamp the outline flower

in Regal Rose.

Then I used my Aqua Painter to color the dots.

It shades automatically.

Darlene DeVries has a wonderful video here

if you'd like to watch it done.

I masked the flowers and used the same technique

for the leaves.

The sentiment is a NBUS.

Since I was very recently introduced and invited to join

Word Art Wednesday,

I thought I'd enter there.

Thanks so much for the visit.

Enjoy!

More Watercolor

I have a few more watercolored cards to share.

Both of these were inspired by

Swarup Murthy (Sanketi).

I've been copying inspired by Sanketi's work for some months now

and she was a teacher at the Online Watercolor Class for Day 5.

I was also inspired to use these flowers and layout from a video by

Darlene Devries

I stamped the flowers with Distress inks, 

blended the colors with an Aqua Painter,

drew the leaves with a Distress Marker

and stamped the leaves using masking and a Stamp-a-majig.

For the background I used Stampin' Up! re-inkers.

I still haven't broken out my watercolor paints.

That's on the agenda for next week.

If  you have any questions, shoot me an email.

Glad you could stop by.

Enjoy!
