For my first card, I started by stamping the large floral image from the Hello Lovely with black ink. I then took Mermaid ink from Lawn Fawn and stamped the coordinating large flower image. I adore this floral image and how it takes up nearly an entire A2 card panel. It completely takes the design work out of the card. This would be a great card design to mass produce for a gift set. I will probably do just that.
For my second card today, I stamped the same large floral image, although this time with Onyx Black Versafine ink. After I stamped the image, I immediately poured some clear embossing powder over the image. I heat embossed this solely for the purpose of aiding in my water coloring. By embossing the image, it is easier to water color as the embossed lines help the colors from moving where you don't want them to go. I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers for this process.

Beautiful image worked wonderfully in two different ways. I really like the first one...the color in the flower and the background work so well together. Clean and graphic. The second one with the colors is fabulous! You did a great job using the watercolor! So very well done! Hugs!! :)
