Jeannie is our hostess for this week's Tickle a Teapotter challenge, and while it was a stretch for me, I ended up making two cards. (So feel free to say which you prefer, in case I draw you!).
For this one, I took my inspiration from the little patches of wildflower lawn that I had seen when I visited an arboretum with my sister the weekend before last - we also walked around the Pleasure Gardens, and the lawns included four different patches of wildflower, I'll add a photo in the challenge thread.
I wet my paper and just added loose splashes of colour for the flowers. When dry, I added some greens for the foreground, and then I added a little splatter above them. I doodled the flowers in, distressed the edges and added it to a base with a scored frame. I just cannot get the colour right in the photo, I've taken three different lots in different lighting at different times of day. It's prettier than it looks here.
