Here is my card:
This card is all about the flower!! I stamped the daffodil using Mustard Seed distress ink before heat embossing with clear powder. I find heat embossed images easier to water colour as the embossing acts as a barrier to the water. I then water coloured the image using more distress inks - I also ink blended another piece of card to create the mat and the die cut stick frame. I adhered the flower with fun foam behind it to add some dimension.
I used:
STAMPlorations Boxed Blooms
WOW Clear Embossing Powder
Distress inks - Twisted Citron, Carved Pumpkin and Mustard Seed
Poppystamps - Stick Frame die
