Indigo Blues with Pinkfresh Studios

 


Hello!  In a recent purchase from Pinkfresh Studios, they included a lovely freebie called Indigo Vines stamp set.  It’s a lovely combination of sketchy leaves and sentiments that was a really nice surprise.  When I saw it I knew it would be a great set to watercolor, and you can’t get any more simple than stamping the image in ink on watercolor paper, then using a brush with water to spread out the colour.  



After watercolouring I trimmed out each leafy piece and created an arrangement I liked.  I found a great sketch from Freshly Made Sketches that made the design shine, with all the action up top and a clean bottom half of the card.  A little like a mullet (wink!).  


For the bottom of the cream cardstock base I ran it through Pinkfresh Studio’s Intricate Stitched Ovals.  The sentiment is from Spellbinder’s Yana’s Sentiments foiled in gold.  It’s a lovely classy touch.  To tie in the gold foiling I did a little gold splatter for a lovely elegance!  Thanks for stopping by!
