On today's card I am featuring Simon Say Stamps exclusive beautiful Winter Flowers Clear Stamps & Everything Winter Sentiment Strips.

I stamped my images onto Canson XL Watercolor paper using Ink On 3 No Line Fadout ink pad & then water coloured them using Altenew watercolour pans.

I heat embossed some stars from the Party Like A Panda & Fairy Tale Spinners stamp sets, using Simon Says Stamps Clear Embossing Ink Pad & White Fine Detail Embossing Powder & then gave my background a watercolour wash, adding deeper colours until I reached the desired colour. I doodled over where the dotted lines are on the stamped images are using a white gel pen as with using a No Line Fadeout ink pad they were pretty much impossible to see. My dotted lines aren't perfect but I'm glad I went over them as the white looks lovely with the poinsettias.

I added a sentiment from Simon Says Stamps Everything Winter Sentiment Strips & embellished my card with some Pearls, Sequins, Simply White Crystal Drops & Gouache.

Other supplies used - 

Simon Says Stamp Black card stock & Tacky Glue, Elizabeth Craft Designs Double Sided Tape, Tonic Guillotine, Tim Holtz Stamping Platform, Tonic Scissors,  Sakura White Gel Pen, Tonic Nuvo Paint Brushes.
