Embossed resist watercolour.

Hi everyone, 

it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Lindsey has chosen a Spring fling theme.

There are lots of fabulous ideas to inspire you from our party guest and DT, so I hope you can play along.

Remember, if flowers aren't your thing you can always play along with our anything goes birthday theme too.

I haven't used this Hero Arts stamp in a long time, even though I love the image.

I stamped it using  unicorn white ink then embossed with white embossing powder.

 I did have to stamp twice so thank goodness for my Misti!

I used Kuretake Gansai watercolour paints and did a light wash over the whole image then used paper towel to blot off most of the colour. Then I carefully painted the flowers. 

Watercolouring is definitely not my strong point but the embossed edges resisted the paint which made things a bit easier.

I'm linking up to these challenges:

Simon Says Stamp Monday, add some texture.

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday where they have this gorgeous Spring mood board for inspiration.
