Hello crafty friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
Today I have a couple of fall floral cards with SSS Sunflower Stem, Cosmos Stem, and Daisy Stem dies.
For my first card, I used the Sunflower Stem die along with the Lined Circles stencil.
I die cut the Wonky Rectangle Panel from watercolour paper first. I placed (and taped) the Lined Circles stencil over the panel, and then brushed over the stencil using Altenew Rocky Shore dye ink to fill the panel. I inked up over the panel with Antique Linen and Tea Dye Distress inks.
I die cut the Sunflower Stem from watercolour paper, then watercoloured it with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel. Once the panel was dry, I mounted it on white card base using Glue Dots Permanent Tape Runner, and then adhered the watercoloured sunflower on the card using foam tape.
I applied Glossy Accents to the middle part of sunflower, and added a few of Fresh Cut Grass sequins. For the sentiment, I used the Gratitude Sentiment Strips – it’s so handy, easy to use!!

For my second card, I used the Cosmos Stem & Daisy Stem dies along with the Mod Stripe stencil.
I placed the Mod Stripe stencil on the Wonky Rectangle watercolour panel first, and then brushed with Altenew Rocky Shore dye ink.
I blended to the panel with Tattered Rose & Tea Dye Distress inks. I added water droplets. I die cut Cosmos Stem & Daisy Stem from watercolour paper, then lightly watercoloured them.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a fabulous day!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
I’m so excited and honoured to be a part of the Tonic Studios Garden Party Release Blog Hop! It is a very first monthly stamp set release of Tonic Studios and all their new sets are truly amazing – especially flowers!! If you arrived here from Bibi Cameron’s blog you are on the right track!

For my cards today, I am focusing on the Peony Bloom Stamp Set. It is my most favourite set among entire release products. :D
For my first card, I made no-line watercolour peony card with some Nuvo Aqua Flow Pens.

I stamped peonies and leaves from the Peony Bloom set on watercolour paper using light coloured dye ink, and then coloured them with Nuvo Aqua Flow Pens & water brush. I coloured a part of each petal with aqua flow pen first, and then fill the empty space using water brush. These watercolour pens are really fantastic!! The colours are so vibrant and they blend well with water. I love it so much!!
(Petals) Flamingo Pink & Apple Red / Wild Phlox & French Wine
(Leaves & bough) Sliced Kiwi, Aqua Splash, Indigo Batik, Caramel Pecan
Once the watercoloured images were dry, I fussy cut them out, and then adhered them on the card front using foam tape.
For the sentiment, I used the Botanical Burst Stamp Set – it’s also a new set and has many adorable flowers and sentiments.
Before I move to my second card, I highly recommend the Midas Touch Aqua Shimmer Pen. Before using it, I just thought it was a gold shimmer pen but I was wrong. This pen has clear + shiny gold shimmer colours – I mean not too much gold colour. It made my watercolour flowers more shiny and pretty. I love, love, love it so much!!

For my second card with the Peony Bloom set, I used the Novu Shimmer Powders.
I randomly stamped flowers & leaves on watercolour paper panel using Nuvo Black Shadow hybrid ink. Next, I applied clean water all over the stamped panel using spray bottle, and then I sprinkled some of the shimmer powders in Catherine Wheel, lilac waterfall, Green Parade, and Falling Leaves onto the wet stamped panel. Once I applied powders, I brushed them with a wet paint brush.
It looks quite messy but artsy, isn’t it? :D
