Do you remember a few weeks ago I took part in the Simply Sketched Saturday Blog Hop!? Well, one of the lovely ladies that joins us very month is Ania from anna’s stampin’ cave, and she made this fabulous watercoloured card using Birthday Blooms – and I could not pass up the opportunity to CASE it!
I haven’t watercolour-ed properly for ages! and felt really rusty doing this piece, but I am fairly happy with how it turned out. The flower itself is in Mint Macaron, with Emerald Envy leaves and a hint of Crushed Curry, while the background is in Sweet Sugarplum. The dappled effect is created by stamping over the image (once it was dry) using the splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge, in Sweet Sugarplum, Crushed Curry and Whisper White. 
The sentiment was heat embossed onto a strip of Watercolour Paper in white, and the water coloured in Crushed curry.

This card has a card base of Sahara Sand, with a layer of Flirty Flamingo and then Whisper White. There are a few stamp sets in play here, there are some splatter in the background in Flirty Flamingo using Gorgeous Grunge, while the sentiment is taken from Floral Phrases.
The horizontal and vertical elements of the sketch were the trickiest bit for me, but I never need an excuse to grab Gorgeous Grunge off the shelf!
The ‘You’ is actually die cut 4 times, the first time from the stamped piece of Whisper White, and then 3 times in Early Espresso. It is super easy to layer these together using Tombow glue (although the silicone mat helps lots!). Before I die cut the You though I stamped onto the piece of Whisper White, first with the flowers from Birthday Blossoms in Perfect Plum, and then in Blushing Bride and Crumb Cake with Gorgeous Grunge.
