Hello! The monthly challenge on Instagram for Simon Says Stamp is watercolouring, so I thought I’d pull out one of my Simon Says Stamps sets called Beautiful Flowers , because it really IS beautiful! I embossed the image onto Arches watercolour paper, and pulled out some of my Daniel Smith Watercolour tubes to paint.
It almost feels a bit like cheating when you watercolour over embossing. The raised edges of the embossing hold your colours in each section so nicely. This image has a lot of gold in it, so over all it was easy to paint. I used the coordinating dies for the set to die cut the image out.
I also created a background using a Gothic stencil and embossing paste with ink splatters. It gives it so much great texture.
The sentiment is from the set, also embossed in gold, and a few mirrored sequins make it sparkly.
