I'm back! Day three of Papertrey Ink Inspiration week for the July new release! Happy to see you again so soon! Today I'm featuring a sweet and pretty new floral stamp set called Stemmed Statements. This stamp set has tons of floral images just right for cards, and also has matching dies. I thought these images were perfect for watercoloring! Everything in the new July release is available now in the PTI Store. I hope you've found some things that you like this month. I kind of loved everything this month!!! Wait until tomorrow's post!! YEAH!!
For today's card, I used the pretty geranium stamp image. My card base is A2 size and then I covered it with PTI polka dot paper from my stash. I die cut a panel from watercolor paper to stamp on and then kept the left over watercolor paper handy for an additional image. I started by stamping and heat embossing the geranium twice on the bottom of the panel. I left a space in the center for another geranium. The third one was stamped, embossed and then die cut out and added on later. I used Zig Clean Color Brush Markers for my watercoloring in vivid reds and soft greens....so pretty!
These stamps are so delicate and lovely! Here is a close up of my watercoloring. I added a light aqua wash of color around the images and also splattered some aqua onto the entire panel. I attached the third geranium with foam squares.
The sentiments included with this set and sweet and delicate - simple joys....ahhhh...
That's it for today's post! I hope to see you tomorrow! Hint for tomorrow's post: TROPICAL!! XOXO
SUPPLIES!

This makes me so happy! The watercoloring is spot on. I wish my geraniums would bloom this pretty.
