I made this card for a dear on-line friend who is celebrating her birthday day.
I started with a background done with the splash watercolouring technique, using lots of the same colours as my main image.
There's a short video tutorial on this technique.
The tulips are done with the watercolour spritz technique. Markers were used to colour the stamp, a little spritz of water, and then stamped onto my splash background. I didn't want to cover any of the design, so used a torn vellum strip with heat embossed sentiment. A few sequins finishes the card.

Your blend of colors is just gorgeous on this one! When something stamps so beautifully, I always hate to take the chance of another wet media. Glad you did! That background is perfect for this!

Oh, man - this one is gorgeous. (Yeah, yeah, I know - I say that every time - but it is true every time!) Love, love, LOVE the soft colors and technique!
