Monday Montage #263









It’s a great day for some Monday Montage creativity! With all the crazy I’ve had this past week, I am SO happy that I had a card to share that I hadn’t yet posted … haven’t had time to play in several days!








First I started with the Simply Zinnia dies. I LOVE zinnias and really wanted to make some that would just pop off the page - Blackberry Bliss, Petunia Pop and Berry Bliss filled the bill quite nicely. I used both Daffodil Delight and Lemon Lolly to create the little “ring” around the center of each flower. I cut the greenery from some Garden Green cardstock.

Next, I created a watercolor backdrop using Daffodil Delight, Berry Burst and Bubble Bath ink and a water painter. I then splattered a little bit of alcohol on top of the backdrop to add to the depth of the watercolor.

I used the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder to create the little sentiment panel, which I then sponged with a little bit of Blackberry Bliss ink. I couldn’t help but use my favorite “flicking” technique and a Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Write marker to create the splatters … I love the way this one turned out (as I don’t often have great results when I try to be all “artsy” and do some water coloring!).
