I stamped the images onto Canson XL watercolor paper using Simon Says Stamps embossing ink pad and heat set it with white embossing powder. I watercolored the images using Altenews watercolor pan set and once dry fussy cut my images.

For my background I simply added some flicks of the watercolour paint onto white card stock and once dry mounted it onto Simon's Fog Grey card stock.

I die cut a frame with MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle dies in White Woodgrain card stock & foam mounted it onto my card, then added a sentiment from Simon's Sketched Flowers stamps set. I then added my fussy cut flowers & leaves, & a few simple embellishments to finish.
