Hello and mid-week greetings to you!
I love to watercolor, so I jumped at the chance to get in a bit of a project with mine today.
The Paper Players are asking for Clean and Simple cards using watercolor. I prefer simpler cards for a sympathy greeting, so I left lots of white space. Now I'm wondering if it's TOO simple? I added those three tiny gems just in case.
After I stamped and white heat embossed the floral spray I used Mungyo 48 set paints in soft shades to watercolor. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions. It came out long ago, but I really like the style of the fonts. The flowers are from the Altenew Craft Your Life Kit called Watercolor Flowers. I just used the outline stamps today. I'm aiming for doing just a bit of stamping in random moments when I'm free or waiting for something. It's not quite working out that way yet - but I'm sticking with it!
Be yourself

Make something beautiful!
