Water Colour Blooms

I am popping in with a quick post of a card I made yesterday for the AAA Card Challenge to use water colour techniques. I felt like doing some water colouring and decided to use the boxed bloom stamp by STAMPlorations. And here is my very CAS card:


I simply water coloured the image and cut it out mounting it on yellow card. I then popped it up on some foam fads for dimension. I love the texture of this linen card stock and for once I seemed to have captured this texture in my photo.

I will enter this into the following challenges:
AAA cards -water colour
Crafty Boots -flowers
Deep Ocean Challenges-Summer colours
Craft Room Challenges-A Summer Garden

Enjoy the rest of your day x
