RUBBERNECKER "3 FLOWERS"


This stamp is called "3 Flowers".  This was actually my second try at coloring it and one of the only ones that I kept.  The idea was to make it look like it was watercolored but I had a lot of trouble getting the colors to blend like I wanted.  I did like this one. 
 
I cut and embossed it with the Spellbinders Classic Oval die and mounted it onto the Blushing Bride card stock which had been cut witht he Classic Scalloped Oval.  The butterfly was made using one of the SU punches.  I think the tiny pearls on the butterfly carry through with the dotted swiss embossed design.
 
I'd love it if you would leave a comment.......I appreciate each and every one!  Thanks for stopping by!

(NOTE:  I just realized I should have said that after adding the colors to the stamp with markers, I spritzed it with water to get the colors to blend.)

The flowers are GORGEOUS, and you blended the colors perfectly! I looked at these sets too, and your card encourages me to consider one!

Looks like a watercolor to me :-) I love how it all just seems to go together.

My card was modeled after one I saw on Pinterest.  That card used a die with larger trees.  This die is from Penny Black.  I liked the large...
