NO-LINE WATERCOLOURED LARGE BEAUTIFUL BOUQUET
The set has such a large beautiful bouquet that instead of a card, I decided to create a larger art piece to put on my studio wall. I only stamped the centre of the bouquet in the lightest of ink impressions and then held my watercolour card to a window with the stamp set behind it and used a pencil to trace the flower outlines. This way, I could erase the pencil lines to be almost transparent, and so I could paint the flowers and leaves with a watery blend to nearly nothing at the edges to give that lovely ethereal look.

Summary of the project which gives all the views of the card in one photo :D I’d love if you pinned and called by on Pinterest :D
Spectacular! I’m sure you’ll get a lot of joy from it!
Absolutely beautiful, Debby! I am in awe! What a gorgeous image, and a great idea to make it into an art piece instead of a card.
Wow!!! Just gorgeous I hope you have a beautiful holiday. Love to you and yours
Looks like the flowers were picked straight from your garden. I would love to see this in person. Next time we are in Scotland, you might hear a knock on your door. Don’t fear, I’m NOT a stalker, just a huge fan of your amazing water color technique! :)
Thank you, June! I’m delighted you enjoyed this painting. I hope you get to Scotland again soon!
I LOVE this! In fact, I ordered this stamp set the other day from Simon. Thank you for your tips on how you did this.
