Watercolor Flowers

A bloggy friend sent me a BOATLOAD of Hero Arts stamps for me to sell in the charity tag sale we held in April.  She told me if I saw any that I liked to pluck them out - and although I liked A LOT of them - I only picked out 4 stamps out of the probable 100 she sent! (The goal was to fundraise, not increase my hoard - LOL)

Three of the 4 stamps I chose were these HA watercolor flowers - which I finally used and turned into these cards.  Pretty simple in layout - so they went pretty fast!





For each flower I used the Tim Holtz watercolor pens then spritzed with water and stamped on watercolor paper.  The background stamp is a HA/Basic Grey cling stamp and finished each card off with a MFT sentiment.

I really love how these came out and will have to keep these flowers in mind when I need to put together a quick card!!

Thanks for your visit!

Wow, those flowers are just gorgeous, Maria! I LOVE the watercolor look to them! Gorgeous CAS designs, too. The simple sentiment labels and twine and the stamped lacy background are fabulous!
