A Sweet Summer Bouquet for YOU!

Sally Traidman

I've recently been inspired by many posts on Instagram from @li.la.o so today I decided to try MY version using all HERO products!

I first stamped Flowers for Coloring Bold Prints in Soft Brown Shadow Ink on a Snow Folded Card. Next I watercolored several flowers from Flowers for Coloring stamped in Intense Black Ink, using a combination of Dandelion, Strawberry, Deep Ocean, Pine, Moss and Black Liquid Watercolors. After they were dry I die cut them with the coordinating Flowers for Coloring Frame Cuts. This is so much fun I could do it all day… who needs the beach!? I grabbed an old paper bag and tore off a scrap for my flower wrap and arranged my bouquet inside. Using the Tag Infinity Dies, I stamped a message from Hero Florals Rose Stem in Wet Cement Mid-Tone Shadow Ink, and attached it with some twine. I finished with just a touch of glitter in the centers, because I simply cannot resist a little shimmer!

Inspiration is everywhere - I had a lot of fun mimicking one of my favorite artists today!

Thanks for stopping by!

Love, love, love your pretty summer card Sally! I’ve never used liquid watercolors before, now I’m curious. The paper bag is genius and sparkle in the flower centers is perfect!
