It’s time to play at Pals Paper Arts! The talented Nicole Watt has a sketch for us this week, which I felt would be perfect for showcasing a watercolored spray of flowers. So once again, I pulled out aqua painters, blender pens, and inks, and created this card using the Indescribable Gift stamp set. Enjoy!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
This finished card measures 5″ x 5″ square.
- Watercolored blossoms! The flowers were watercolored with Blender Pens, Wisteria Wonder, Plum Perfect and Pink Pirouette inks. Always Artichoke and Crumb Cake inks were used for the stem and leaves. A white Signo Gel Pen was used to accent the centers. For a touch of bling, sequins with pearls were added. The circle was watercolored using Aqua Painters and Pink Pirouette ink.
- A beautiful bow! Sahara Sand Lace was used to create this double bow. A few strategically placed Glue Dots hold the tails of the bow in position.
- Dream! The single word sentiment, “Dream”, is from the Think Happy stamp set. This set, along with the Naturals White cardstock used for this card, is on the retiring list.
I love this sentiment, and am sad to see this set is retiring. We all need our dreams…even little Boxer puppies.
I hope you enjoyed today’s card. At first, I was going to cut the tails off the bow. But then I decided to keep them long. It is a card which is one I will probably hand-deliver because of the bow. What do you think…should I have cut them off? Won’t you let me know in your comment today? Your comments are important to me, and I do read each and every one. And remember, if you ever have a question about the techniques I use or the cards I create, I am only an email away. Until next time…
