Golden Petal Watercolour with The Stamp Market

Hello!  Today I’m excited to bring you a watercolour design of floral postage!  It’s been too long since I’ve pulled out my brushes.  This beautiful image is from The Stamp Market is such a beauty, and is called - Floral Note.  

I embossed the image in gold onto Arches Cold Pressed watercolour paper, and then pulled out Daniel Smith watercolours of Quin Coral, Quin Gold, Cobalt, Jadeite Genuine, and Serpentine Green.  

Then I cut it into postage size sections with The Stamp Market’s Postage Stamps Cover Die, and used a gold sharpie and a ruler to outline the postage stamps.   

Next, I layered it over a cardbase of deep evergreen with stripes of coordinating cardstock using The Stamp Market’s  1/4 inch and 1/2 inch Quick Strips die.  

The sentiment from the set is also embossed on the card.  Those gold touches really add a lovely touch to the watercoloured petals.  I hope you’ve enjoyed it!
