Kia has given us an informative video on painting loose blooms. Not sure if I painted them loose enough. I did make a card for a friend. Die cut the front and scored it. I painted the blooms around the rectangular die cut. Adhered it with dimensions. TFL
I have a question for our artists. This artist is looking for a very white watercolor paper. Most of the time I use arches cold press, and it is more of a natural color. Do any of you use a bright white paper? Any tips would be welcome. Thanks

Your card is very pretty, I've added more color too and love that you've used this as a frame
To answer your question, I have some very white water color paper blocks, they are from creative craft, grain fin 300GSM - 21cm x 29.7cm, 3 stars artist quality

Fabulous flowers and splatter, Linda. You did lovely work on this birthday card. Love it.
I can't always tell the difference in whites for some reason and I am starting to have issues with black and dark blue too. Good luck in your quest. Your cards would look fabulous with any color of paper. Hugz
