I appreciate and thank you for your support!

I've die cut the Cube Cover die twice, slightly offset and glued die cuts together and inked with Wisteria Dye Ink. I then coated the inked stack with Nuvo Moonstone Glimmer Paste.

Blooms are stamped with Embossing Ink on specialty stamping paper with the Wonderland stamp set and heat embossed with Rose Gold embossing powder. 

I then watercolored them by dropping Persian Blue, Lagoon and Emerald watercolor ink from the watercolor brush markers onto a craft mat, spritzed with water and then pressed the paper down randomly into the ink to "color". Once dry, fussy cut images and adhere large directly to panel with liquid adhesive and the smaller image with foam tape.

Sentiment is from the Sentiments and Quotes set and the entire panel is adhered over Gold Mirror card stock.

For this card I created my own colored card stock with water color paper and watercolor brush markers in Lagoon, Emerald and Persian Blue ink.  I wet the paper with water and then dropped the ink at the top and tipped my paper to allow the ink to run down the page. 

I used a couple of different watercolor papers from my stash and it was interesting to see how they reacted differently. I'll be doing a video on this in the future.

Once the paper dried, I then cut them with the Watercolor Garden dies. Love the size of blooms this makes, will be incorporating these into a scrapbook layout in the future too. I inked white card stock with Buttercream ink to die cut the flower centers from. Sentiment is from the Dearest Friend stamp set.

I had a leftover Stacked Diamonds cover die that was partially cut for a previous project so I used it here, arranging the florals around the open area of the die cut.

Thanks for popping in and taking a look!
