Hello - it's Michelle here today, and I have a card to share today using the Early Tulip Bouquet stamp set.   I started by ink smooshing some Distress Oxide inks onto a piece of watercolour paper. I then stamped the main image from Early Tulip Bouquet in Picket Fence Studios Black hybrid ink, and coloured the image using Copic markers in colours to match the Distress Oxide inks.  I then stamped the Hello from Fancy Sentiments, but I masked off part of the flourishes on the word so that it would fit a bit better on the card.

I have a bold floral card to share today, using stamps from the May release. I white embossed the image from "A Rose" in the top left and bottom right of a piece of Canson watercolour paper. I painted the image using Distress Oxide inks in a variety of blue, pink and red colours. I added a sentiment from the Bird of Paradise Flowers stamp set white embossed onto a scrap of black cardstock. I finished with some sequins from the Gin and Tonic sequin mix.   Did you know?

Hello - it's Michelle here today to share this card that I made a little while ago by mixing Agapantha purple and Cornflower Blue paper glazes to create a new colour.

Hello! It's Michelle here today to share a watercolour emboss resist card I made using the Early Tulips Bouquet stamp set from Picket Fence Studios. I stamped the floral image onto watercolour cardstock with Versamark ink and white embossed it. I then added scribbles of red, orange, emerald green and olive green watercolour markers (I used Zig markers) and then sprayed the panel with water. I dried the panel with a heat tool before adding more colour and repeating the process. When I came to the background, I added the deep blue and the aqua colour, but I used a...
