Sketched Flowers

Today's card features one of my favourite floral stamps...'Sketched Flowers' by Simon Says Stamp. I stamped it on to a piece of watercolour effect paper (from the 'Watercolour Feelings' pad by Craft Sensations) using Versamark ink, then heat embossed it in white. I heat embossed a sentiment, using a stamp from the 'What This' set by Anita Jeram for the Colorado Craft Company, in white to match, then doodled a simple border using a white gel pen. I trimmed the panel down to fit a DL card blank, then distressed the edges a little before adding it to the card.
