IC590 - Grateful Floral Greeting Card

Photo Details

Poster: girlgeek101

Inspired by this lovely tutorial:
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/387591111667762775/

I didn't actually try the tutorial yet. Rather, I used stencils with white embossing paste to make my floral elements, and after they dried I sprayed water on the paper and simply dabbed color around using a thick aqua painter.

I thought a window card would be a great way to frame the dimension of my faux textured watercolor painting. Of course that white frame also insisted that I hand pen my sentiment too! I love how this turned out, and wish you could see it in real life! Really fun project!

Thank you for looking, hugs,
Audrie
