I made this card for a joint hop with the My Sweet Petunia and Joy Clair design teams. I made the background using pastel chalk inks, and created some color variation by stamping one impression with my chevron border, then moving the card up 1/4" to create a darker area in the overlap.
The sentiment on this card is from the Hugs and Smiles set - it's full of all kinds of sweet mix-and-match sayings with a fun script font. I used a variety of watercolors to color in the flowers on this panel - I tried using the inks from the background but the effect was more pale - I like the more vibrant colors here, and it was fun to mix them up a little.
