Just Because...


Sharing a pic today of the fabulous 'Begonia Rex Swan' -  I got for Mothers' Day   -  isn't she gorgeous

I've been finishing off some UFOs in my desk this weekend ....
.. Stamped and pale gold embossed my flowers and used the matching die to cut them out... then watercoloured them with Distress Inks.  For the background I used my blending brushes to create a spotlight with Distress Oxide ink in Tattered rose for the centre blended with Aged mahogany to the edges. - then a fine mist of water for some splatters.  To finish I added a stamped and white embossed sentiment strip.


I am playing along with Fusion challenge - Thank you ---  using the sketch only   ....   AND  ...  Stamping Sensations May challenge - Say it with Flowers.
Thanks for stopping by my blog  ---  have a Happy Day and stay safe
