Thank you Bonnie


Hi everyone.  Here's another watercoloured card ... this one was sent to my dear friend Bonnie (Stamping with Klass).  She has already received the card, so I'm sharing with you. :)

Bonnie is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, so I thought I'd use a SU! stamp for her card.  And I used SU! inks as well ... they work great on my watercolour paper.  I used red for the flowers to give it a punch of colour for these pretty SweetBriar Roses.







Stamps:  Sweetbriar Rose (SU!); Sentiment Builders Thank You (STAMPlorations)
Paper:  White card base (Neenah); Watercolor (Arches 140 lb. cold press)
Ink:  Archival Black - waterproof (Ranger); Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Always Artichoke, Real Red, Cherry Cobbler (SU!)
Accessories & Tools:  waterbrush, water mister, heat tool, paint brush for splattering

Oh Loll, I bet Bonnie loved this card! I have seen that stamp in the SU catalog but never bought it knowing that I could never to it justice. But you have! It is simply stunning!! And I so love your background. I swear you need to do tutorial or classes or something on how to water color like this! Hugs, Brenda
