Hi all!
Super quick post here...I've been helping a friend capture feral cats at her dad's house and while transporting it to a shelter to be fixed, one got out in my yard!!! I've got to trap it before it reproduces...
This card uses Altenew's August Build-a-Garden Bougainvillia bundle. I started with the background, using a light color to stamp the image, then inked it with the coordinating stencil and blending brushes. I then lightly brushed water over to the image to soften the edges and give it an atmospheric background look...I think it worked?
The foreground flowers were created the with the same ink colors, stamp and stencil, but I didn't add water to give the illusion it was in the foreground. The image was die cut and popped up on foam tape to give it dimension.
It's finished off with the coordinating sentiment from the stamp set.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a colorful day!

So pretty. The background is beautiful and I like how you paired with a repeat of the floral spray with more detail. Thanks for joining us at Happy Little Stampers ~ Watercolour Challenge.
