Make it Monday #166: Debossed Stamped Images

This week's Make it Monday has us using our dies to "deboss" our stamped images. Since I can't seem to stop watercolouring, I decided to try to combine watercolouring with a debossed stamped image. I used PTI's "Year of Flowers: Sweet Peas", and "Think Big Favourites: Birthdays". This card will be going to our niece, whose birthday is in June.

I added some Perfect Pearls Powder to the paint to give the petals a little sheen, although I'm not sure it shows up too well in the photos...
Thanks for looking!

    Oh my goodness, this is SO beautiful! Your water coloring of the sweet peas is spectacular, and am loving your subtle WC background. I'd love to see this IRL to get the full effect of your pearlescents. Nice work!

    Oh, my.... when I see your watercoloring I feel so insignificant and elementary. This gives me something to aspire to, someday, somehow (hugs and kisses).
