Hi Friends! Today I thought I'd try something a little bit different using some new dies from Gina K Designs along with my Spectrum Aqua Markers. The dies are from the new wildly popular kit called Flowers & Frames. {Note: it is currently out of stock; however, there are more due in by the end of May}. Here's how I made this card...
Step 1: Gather supplies - watercolor paper, Spectrum Aqua Markers (Navy, Teal, Peacock Blue) and a waterbrush. Add some Spectrum Aqua colors to a palette and paint color on to the watercolor paper.
{Note: I was experimenting and had embossed the watercolor paper before starting. I didn't end up liking the result of the lattice and changed directions}
Step 2: Once the entire sheet is colored, add color here here and there to fill in any spots until you have the desired look.
Step 3: Using the flower dies from the kit, trim several from the watercolor paper & then emboss them with an embossing folder. {Note: these were originally embossed with a lattice folder; however, I didn't like the larger pattern and embossed them again with a polka-dot folder ~ see photo of finished project.}
Step 4: Using Spectrum Aqua Markers Sea Green and Bud Green, add colors to a piece of watercolor paper and trim with the leaf die.
Here is a close up of the finished flowers.
Enjoy your day & thanks for stopping by!
