For this card, I first sprayed my piece of watercolor paper and let the water soak in to get it evenly damp (no puddles or standing water, just damp all over). Then I inked up the largest, most solid image of the flower in Crisp Cantaloupe, stamped off once, and stamped it onto the wet paper so that the image would soften and bleed out along the edges. I repeated this for the other two flower images, using full strength Crisp Cantaloupe for the middle one and full strength Calypso Coral for the detail image. The stem was stamped with Wild Wasabi. After the flower had softened out as much as I liked, I dried it with my heat tool and then stamped the sentiment, so that it would be crisp and clear. I doodled a line around the image with a Sharpie and mounted it to panels of Basic Black and Wild Wasabi. I stamped the Hardwood background onto my Wild Wasabi card base using Garden Green ink, and popped the flower panel up on dimensionals. I hope you like today's project! Thanks for looking!
