Happy Watercolor and Less is More


The challenge this week at less is More is the dreaded One layer Card! However I actually quite like making these! I know - I must be odd!!  The new Happy Watercolor stamp set from the Spring/Summer mini is perfect for one layer cards.  I stamped the paint splotch (is that a word?) in four colours then stamped the flower on top in black. I added some extra depth by colouring with the matching marker pens and added glossy accents to the flowers to finish.

Recipe: 
 Stamp set: Happy Watercolor, Fiels Flowers (sentiment)
Inks:  Pistachio Pudding, So Saffron, Crisp Canteloupe, Calypso Coral, Black Stazon
Misc: Glossy Accents

             



You can order from my online shop at anytime  or email  if you prefer the personal touch .

    I must be odd too, then, because I love the one-layer challenges! Gorgeous card, I love the background & the way the colours reflect those of the main image.

    Your card is great. It doesn't have the feel of a one-layer card because there is so much interest on the front. I love the look of one-layered cards but the feel is usually naked. I love that stamp set and what you've done with it.

    Wow, that is amazingly beautiful, Sue! It looks just like you had watercolored this by hand!! It's a winner in my book!! (I love OLCs, too, so I'll be an odd one with you! I was so bummed I didn't get a chance to play in the challenge this time.) Hugs, Darnell
