Stately Flowers 3

A few weeks ago Melanie Muenchinger, illustrator for Gina K Designs, contacted me to ask if I would create a few cards using her Stately Flowers 3 stamp set. I am sharing a card which I made with the magnolia image and sentiment from the set.

I started by stamping the magnolia image on water color paper. I then used a water color brush and dye ink pads to watercolor the image. After the image was dry I spritzed the image Sheer Shimmer Spritz by Tsukineko. The Spellbinder die is the lotus pendant. A few pearls were also added. This was lots of fun to create and the water coloring gave it such a soft effect.

If you have come over from Melanie's blog post the following supplies were used to create the "Thinking of You" card:
