As you can see I am still enjoying water colouring at the moment & have stamped my image using Ink On3 Fadeout ink pad onto watercolour paper & used a mix of Distress Inks and Altenew watercolour Pans to colour the pretty image.

The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamps Sketched Flowers stamp set & is one I've used again and again as I love the elegant swirly writing.

Use Dies & / or Punches! - Simon Says Stamp DT

Good afternoon lovely peeps!

Use Die & / or Punches!

Today's card features Memory Box Catalina Wreath Wafer Die which I didn't intend using for this challenge but my DT parcel with the products I intended to use is somewhere in Switzerland for some reason & didn't arrive in time. The Catalina Wreath die is so pretty I'm more than happy to use it again & have done many times.

I die cut the Catalina Wreath using white cardstock & then coloured the flowers using Copics and then dusted my die cut with prisma glitter.

I die cut a large tag and then placed it on Simon Says Stamps Stitched Whirl background die to add the lovely pattern to my tag. 

For my sentiment I have used Simon Says Stamp You Matter stamps & die & I chose this sentiment as I made my card on Monday which was the day those of us in the England were at last allowed to "cautiously" hug our friends & loved ones for the first time since the start of the pandemic.

Today's card features Pink Fresh Studio's Thankful For Friends Clear Stamp Set which I have stamped using Ink On 3 Fadeout ink pad & water coloured using Altenew's Watercolour pans

To stencil the hearts above my flowers I ink blended Stormy Sky Distress Ink over Simon Says Stamp & CZ Designs Simple Duo Stencil and then I added some watered down Shaded Lilac Distress Ink to the left side of each blue heart using a paintbrush and pulled the colour across with my wet paintbrush. I wanted the hearts to look a little softer than they did so I used a large paintbrush and just painted over them a couple of times using water.
