Happy New Year to you all! Let's hope that this one will be better than last year.m
Welcome back to the Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge after our six month break. The theme is Anything Goes. No optional twist this time.
I have used a new stamp set from Paper Rose called Wattle I Do. I stamped it with Ink on 3 and watercolored the image, Once dry I added coloured pencil to add detail. It looked a bit bare so I sponged Antique Linen Distress ink lightly through a stencil. I've no idea what make it is as I've had it for ages.
It still looked unfinished when I put it on a white card blank so added a mat in Sahara Sand. I'll add a sentiment when it gets used.
There's lots of lovely inspiration on the challenge blog and new design team members too who would love to have a visit from you.
I like how you added the stenciled background to your watercolor floral panel - gives a little more interest. Wonderful card
