Admitting that whatever the inspiration challenge was today, I was going to be using this new die set that I got in the mail yesterday! I am in love with it!
Looking through the IC site, I fell in love with several things and may have to buy some of them. Here are a few of my favorites:
I painted the bucket wth watercolors, added a bit of metalic ink in a few spots, an finished off with a touch of distress inks. The flowers and leaves were colored with distress oxides. I didn't spend much time shaping the flowers, I still like how they came out.
Thanks for introducing us to a very cool site/pinterest board, Kia.
