Hey Everyone
I have a new flower stamps to play with!!! Thank you Stampin’ Up!
I initially purchased Happy Birthday Gorgeous from the Stampin’ Up! pre-order JUST for these flowers……I don’t think I even looked at the sentiments that come in the set when I ordered it. I was thrilled when I looked past the flowers and found all the sentiments that come with it. It’s a great set with tons of great stamps.
My background watercolour skills are still needing work so I’ve used the watercolour smooshing technique to add a little interest behind my flowers. I must say – I totally love the effect this technique gives my card. The colours I used for my smooshing were Berry Burst and Powder Pink – two of the new InColours from the 2017-2018 Annual Stampin’ Up! Catalogue. The flowers were stamped with Berry Burst and Sweet Sugarplum. The leaves are from Jar of Love. I stamped these in Old Olive and spent the next 20 minutes fussy cutting them.
Here’s my card:
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers

Gorgeous ,love the smooching and the layout of the flowers. ….
That’s a lot of fussy cutting, but well worth the effort! TFS!
Your smooshing is beautiful! And so is this card!
What a GORGEOUS card! I am curious about your “smooshing” technique…..do you have a video that explains what that is?
Hi Becky – I typed in smooshing technique in youtube and found a few videos that showcase this. I haven’t actually made one myself! Cheers Narelle
