Poppies Edition - Condolences card

 A condolences card needed for a lovely crafty friend

Stamp the poppy with aged mahogany, dry it then using waterbrush pull the colour from the edges through the petals. 

Whilst wet add some fired brick with a watercolour brush.

Draw the leaves through the stencil and watercolour using the green distress inks.

Use a fine black pen to outline and create form, detail and depth to the image.

Stamp the flower onto masking paper, and trace through for the leaves. Once added to the card splatter both the red and green inks.

Lastly stamp the words and add them to the card.



Thinking of you Gayna. 💔 xxx
