Watercolor Florals Card Set with Lea Lawson

Hi crafty friends! Lea Lawson here today to share a card set featuring the new products from the Watercolor Florals collection. There is such a beautiful collection of floral stamps that can be used with many different techniques. Let’s take a look at how I created these cards!

For my first card I stamped & heat embossed the florals & leaves twice in gold to water friendly Bristol cardstock using the Beauty In Bloom stamp set. I loosely watercolored the images with sparkle watercolor markers in shades of pinks & purples for the flowers, and green for the leaves. I added yellow centers to each floral, then splattered white acrylic ink to them. Once dry, I fussy cut all of the images.

Next I die cut a coordinating panel from Bristol cardstock using the largest Nestabilities Essentials Rectangles, then stamped the sentiment to the middle of it in black ink using the Wildflower Sentiments stamp set. I popped the panel up on a purple A2 card base using foam adhesive, then arranged & glued the flowers down as shown. To finish I accented with trios of iridescent jewels. For my second card I stamped the layering flowers to a white cardstock panel using the Layered Wildflowers stamp set and premium dye inks.  I die cut the panel using the largest Nestabilities Essentials Rectangles, then stamped the sentiment to the upper right corner in black using the Wildflower Sentiments stamp set. I spattered the flowers with white acrylic ink and let dry.

Once dry, I mounted the panel to the front of an A2 card base with foam adhesive, then accented the larger flowers with jewels to finish. For my final card, I stamped the florals from the Fragrant Flowers stamp set in fadeout ink to water friendly bristol cardstock. I lightly colored them in with sparkle watercolor makers, then stamped the sentiment to the middle in black ink. I diecut the panel using the largest Nestabilities Essentials Rectangles, then spattered the flowers with white acrylic ink and let dry.

Once dry, I mounted the panel to the front of an A2 card base with foam adhesive, then accented the larger flowers with jewels to finish. I really love this lovely set of stamps in the Watercolor Florals collection! I had so much fun creating this card set and I hope they inspire you as you create with these gorgeous new products. Have a wonderful day!
