For my last post, I'm sharing a beautiful flower image, 40-680 at grace, using the no-line watercolouring technique.
I started by inking the image in a very light blue. It mixed really well with the purple ink to create lovely colours for the flowers. I used just part of the image and framed it up in white to create a CAS (clean and simple) design. I masked off part of the sentiment, 30-541 good wishes, using just the Happy Birthday stamped in the same ink colour as the leaves.
