Claire has a sketch for us at The Paper Players #735 and I couldn't resist it! Digging into my stash I found this sweet little Altenew Coneflower that wanted to play cards, too!
Here's Claire's Sketch:
I had that set out for another challenge but I'm trying to watercolor more using all of the wonderful line art images I have in my stash. Jill Foster's influence, no doubt! After stamping and water coloring, I used the coordinating die to cut the smaller bloom, and an MFT Elegant Rectangle die for the larger which will stand in for the circle on Claire's sketch... it's easier to show than to tell!

Though I really love the uncut/cut version stacked, that rectangle forced me
to make it a landscape version of Claire's sketch - I hope she doesn't mind!
My vertical strip was a smooshed snippet, and of course I had another Betterpress sentiment to add. Its cotton paper matches so well with the Canson watercolor paper I used for painting and the card base, too. You'll be seeing the layering stamped version of these Coneflowers soon!
Hope you've had a wonderful start to your week - thanks for stopping by today!
