Hello!
I couldn't resist this week's Make It Monday Challenge - no outline watercolour! Heather demonstrated the technique, and I wanted to separate the petals a bit more, so I painted them at different times, letting each batch of petals dry before painting their adjacent petals. This means this card took me two days to make, sigh! Even now, I could go back and do some more shading, but I've run out of time.
I used my new Botanical Blocks stamps with Winsor & Newton Cotman water colours on water colour paper. I gold embossed the sentiment.
While I had the Botanical Blocks stamps out, I also made another card. This one coloured with a mixture of Copics and SU! Blendabilities. I'm new to colouring, so don't look too closely!
I have two aunties who have birthdays approaching. These cards are for them.
It's Sunday night. It's time to prepare for the week ahead. I am wishing the week-end was just a little bit longer... ;-)
Thanks for visiting!

Absolutely beautiful Michelle. Your painting/coloring is amazing.
Both cards are so beautiful, Michelle! Love how you framed each image! And I hear ya about weekends - I wish they were longer too!
beautiful!
Both of these are straight up gorgeous!
Beautiful coloring techniques on both of these lovely floral cards Michelle!
Gorgeous!!
Oh these cards are lovely Michelle :) Love the watercolouring you've done. It really makes a difference to take the time and come back to add more depth and colour doesn't it? i wasn't a fan of this particular stamp set, but seeing your cards here may change my mind :)
These cards are both wonderful. I completely forgot I bought that set--it is perfect for water coloring and copic coloring--you do it like a pro, too.
Both are beautiful Michelle! Love the way your no outline watercolor turned out, so pretty!
Love this and the colors are so very stunning !
