Watercolored Blossoms | by Toni M Maddox

Hello, Birch Press fans! Toni here with you today sharing a watercolor floral card featuring a mix of the new and the old.

I watercolored the base layer of the Eucalyptus Stem and Berries Contour Layers dies using Zig Real Brush Markers.

I also watercolored the smaller of the Simple Butterfly Contour Layers dies, keeping them separate so I’d have two butterflies.

On the card base, I applied Memory Box Sunset Blush Wide Washi Tape, smoothing out air bubbles as I went along. It’s a lot like working with wall paper but stickier–LOL!

I next cut out the Honeycomb Bevel Plate Layer Set with the lower layer in Vintage Pastel Mirror Pad 6×6 paper and the upper in white.

I adhered the honeycomb layers to the card front and added the Kind Hearts sentiment which I had stamped onto white cardstock sponged with a touch of Distress Oxide Mustard Seed.

I tucked the blossom in place behind the sentiment and added the butterflies for a lovely spring/summer scene.
