Hi everyone. Today's card uses my favourite Altenew stamp (Nature's Magic). Love this set of flowers and was going to use the matching stencils but ... they somehow got lost in our last move and I hadn't noticed until yesterday. So I watercoloured the flowers and leaves with distress inks, used the matching die to cut them out and popped them up in a wooden crate (Honey Bee) overtop of dry embossed leaves (Layered Leaves Folder - SU!). I finished by stamping the sentiment (Special Sentiments - Penny Black) onto a strip of white card stock, adhered over the bottom of the card.

Oh that color is fabulous on your crate of blooms. So pretty and fresh.
Oh, Loll, you don't need those stencils - but I understand how upsetting that can be! Your water coloring is just gorgeous, and those flowers are so pretty in your crate!

Gorgeous blooms Loll, so pretty in the cute crate, love the colour. Thankyou for playing along at Seize the Birthday too, Cathy x
Those beautiful blooms fill your crate perfectly, Loll! This is a charming card!
Your watercoloring is beautiful, Lolly, and I'm sure it's even better than stenciling would have done! I'm loving that crate that holds them! Such a beautiful spring card, my friend!
