I scratched the itch last week and so I just had to do some more watercolouring with Flowers of Beauty! Stamp sets like this with big and simple images are great for watercolouring. Especially if you’re just starting out! It’s always nice to have room to add a little more water to smooth out any extra bits of colour.
This time I’m using Misty Moonlight as my main colour. There is some Basic Beige in there too. Other than the sentiment from the Layering Leaves stamp set though, it’s kind of hard to see. So I stamped the sentiment and two of the taller foliage images on the Fluid 100 Watercolour paper in Basic Beige. Once the ink was dry I used the same technique as last time… I coloured with the Watercolour Pencils first and then used a little bit of water and a Water Painter to smooth it out. Sadly there isn’t a Misty Moonlight Watercolour Pencil. So I used Balmy Blue and then added a little bit of Night of Navy on top.
On top of that I added a strip of Misty Moonlight cardstock that I embossed with the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder. Then on top of that I added a piece of County Woods Designer Series Paper that I punched with the 2 3/8″ Circle Punch and popped up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. And on top of that I added two Misty Moonlight butterflies using the Sketched Butterflies bundle.
I’m having so much fun with this, I think I’ll have to do even more watercolouring with Flowers of Beauty!
