Using today's great sketch, had time to play with some new toys. Started by using a sketch of mine that has been scanned on my computer. Using the MDS positioned the flower three times. Printed it on watercolor paper. Heat set it, and watercolored using the geleto's that was gifted to me by Gail. Like their creamy texture. Added my new wink of stella brush..love the bling it adds to an image. The sentiment was sketched with a pencil, and then I used my fountain pen to fill it in with the black ink. Using the die cut stencil, applied the geleto with my finger. Added some score lines.Thanks for looking.

So lovely, Linda! The coloring is so soft and dreamy, and the sentiment is so pretty! I envy your artistic ability, and you'll love to know what paper you're using. I've yet to find decent watercolor paper that my printer will accept.

Gorgeous card, Linda! Your sketched flowers and sentiment are just wonderful! I always admire your addition of the scoring, which adds so much--I need to make a note to try that more often!
