GIU-Day 2

For the Bugaboo new release post, HERE is the link

 It's day 2 of my GIU week, I watercolored again today ; )  Growing up, and still to today, I am very allergic to...everything!  Flowers and grass and trees , dust, mold..... So, I really enjoy coloring and making cards with floral images- they do not make me sneeze!!! 
 
 

  This image is by Graciellie Designs Amazing Things. The card design was CASED from her blog , just different colors from hers.  I used a Unity/Brutus Monroe background Barn Wall. I inked it up with Burgundy ink by Sweet Stamps. I spritzed it before stamping it on Canson Mixed Media cardstock. I watercolored in peach/yellow.  I diluted the peach and brushed it over the Barn Wall background. I used SU cardstock Groovy Guava and Close to Cocoa, both retired. The floral image is raised on dimensionals. There is a touch of shimmer on the flower using Wink of Stella.

This stamp set is called You Matter by Graciellie Designs. I watercolored the flowers first using 3 shades of yellow. The background is purple watercolor and was done after the yellow dried. . The cardstock is Lovely Lilac (SU-retired), and So Saffron (SU).  I made this with a friend in mind, her husband was just put on Hospice care and I know she loves this verse : ) 
 I had to have these sets- will use it more- and happy to have finally inked it up!!!
