Sketched Flowers

I have a birthday card to share today, made using stamps from the 'Sketched Flowers' set by Simon Says Stamp. I stamped the flowers and one of the sentiments from the set on to watercolour paper using Versamark Ink, then heat embossed them using 'Metallic Gold Rich' embossing powder from WOW. I watercoloured the flowers using Cosmic Shimmers pigments mixed with a little water, and once dry, splattered some of the gold pigment over the top.


It's always so difficult to photograph shimmery/sparkly things, but here's a photo from another angle:
