Spring colours and Wildflowers

Evening,
What a gloriously sunny start to the day. It was a bit chilly with evidence of a frost, but beautiful sunshine.
So here are a few cards featuring nice spring coloured backgrounds and wild flowers.
The background to this first one is created using a stencil and Brushos.
The background to this one is made using the Brushos left on the stencil after creating the previous background.
Die cut wildflowers are a great way to use up Handmade Backgrounds without hiding too much.
The background to this card is made using one of my absolute favourite Embossing Folders for this watercolour technique.
Ink one side of the embossing folder with Distress inks and then spritz with water before placing a piece of watercolour card inside. Instead of running it through an embossing machine use pressure from your fingers to transfer the ink to the card, without adding texture.
I told you this was a favorite Embossing Folder. Another background created like the last, in fact you can often get a second impression, just by adding more water.
I've stamped and embossed onto this background, silhouette stamps work just as well as die cuts.
Thanks for stopping by
