(2020 c050) Spring Flowers

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Stamp set used that had Never Before Seen Ink:  Ellen Hutson EESTJ-082-18 Mondo Sakura by JulieStamped with Versamark Ink  and heat embossed with Gold Ranger Embossing Powder

Sentiment (which has been discontinued but they have other choices) from:  My Favorite Things LJD-62 Geometric GreeneryStamped on torn vellum.

I started with a piece of watercolor paper that I had mopped up smooshed Sailboat Blue & Blueprint Sketch Distress Inks by Ranger  which gave a pale background.  You can see in the photos below I used more Distress Inks to “paint” the flowers.

I cut it out with Kat Scrappiness Double Stitched Rectangles and used the outside which had the stitches embossed into it also for a frame deepened in color with Blueprint Sketch.
