I was away for a week last month, staying at our favourite place on Galiano Island. I always take some stamped images with me, along with my zigs. Easy to pack and doesn't take up too much room. This is one of the images I watercoloured while I was there. This is from the new Penny Black release called Timeless. Have to say that I have a lot of the stamps from this release. So many gorgeous images.
Here's a close-up...
Went slightly off the edge with this to give it a little bit of a different look. Used my waterbrush and zigs to watercolour and then stamped the sentiment once I was back home.

So beautifully watercoloured! I like the way they go off the edge of the card. They're making me want to go out and buy a bunch of tulips for my kitchen table!
I adore tulips and these look so beautiful - wonderfully coloured to perfection! A great thing to help you relax on a holiday. I love PB floral stamps :-)

Wow, so gorgeous Loll!!! I love the image, but I really love how you no line watercolored it! I need to get lessons on how to watercolor like this. lol Just stunning as always-you never, ever cease to blow me away! Hugs, Brenda
Gorgeous card, Loll. Your watercolouring is amazing and I love how the image goes off the card. xx
Beautiful... Loll - I love Spring flowers my mum grows tulips and miss the spring flowers living in the tropics after I grew up with four seasons
beautiful water colouring Loll, I struggle with zigs and tend to use them just to tough up areas. Your flowers have so much depth of colour :)
You are becoming the Queen of no-line watercoloring, Lolly! This is beautiful and so realistic! And I really love the sediment you chose!! Hugs, Dolly
OMG..Loll, another no-line watercoloring beauty, my friend. I Love your CAS design and wonderful stamped sentiment too. TFS Hugs..Nancy

These are so lovely. I like the colors in the flowers and the shading. The sentiment is great, too. :)
A gorgeous spring card with the pretty tulips, Loll!! Love the placement off the edge and lovely color!!
SOOOOO pretty!! You've colored the tulips just beautifully my friend...it's almost like they have light shining through them! I've had this stamp for over a month now, played with it once and trashed it, and haven't tried again yet...need to get it out and try again!! Lovely, lovely card and makes me want to put a vase of these on my dining room table!! :0)
Just gorgeous, Loll. The color of your blooms is so beautiful and I like the slightly off the edge look.
I love this! Beautiful tulips beautifully coloured.
So very pretty with wonderful colours and fabulous colouring x.
Love the colors of your beautiful spring bouquet. Such a pretty card. Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.
Gorgeous no-line watercoloring and such a beautiful color palette, Loll! I'm so glad the weather is improving for you...You have certainly brightened my day with this lovely card!
Such beautiful tulips Loll and finished with a wonderful sentiment too, and great to see you over on the PB blog too. x
Tulips are some of my favorite flowers. Mine are up, but not close to blooming just yet! Yours, however, are so pretty and full of Springtime! And that orange!!!! Reminds me of a certain blog header...so you know I do love it. Glad you had the chance to get away. Lucky girl!! Have a wonderful weekend. Bev
Wow, these are so beautiful. Your coloring made them come alive right on the paper. I, too, adore the new Penny Black and got quite a few of them. I need to practice my watercolor so I can do them justice.
Wow, woooonderful !!! I love tulips. Great card !!!
Greetings Momo
I love tulips and these are gorgeous, the colour is so striking. I do love Penny Black stamps, I need to take another look at the latest release xx
Another masterpiece showcasing your incredible talent of no line watercolouring, Loll. Gorgeous depth and spring colours. Cool design stamping it off-the-edge. xx
Your tulips have brought spring to my room, Loll! Your watercoloring is simply stunning and I sense a relaxing/mellow feeling from it (maybe because you were watercoloring this at your favorite place). Love the layout of the flowers a little off the edge and the sentiment balancing the weight.
