Stampin' Up! ~ Remarkable You in Watercolor

Today's card is a soft watercolor that I made for my mother-in-law's birthday that we celebrated while we were in Tennessee.  It had been a bit since I had done a watercolor so I had to give it a try again.


I used the stamp set Remarkable You and stamped the flower and leaves with VersaMark, then the ink color that I wanted the outside to be.  I quickly put clear embossing powder over what I had just stamped and used my heat gun to melt it.




I used an aqua painter to color in the petals.  I wet a petal or leaf one at a time, grabbed some ink and put it on starting where I wanted it to be the darkest, then let the ink spread on it's own since the whole petal or leaf was wet.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!
