Smile

Hello,
Two posts in one day, I am not sure what has happened, but I am on a roll!  I am sharing this card at
Casology Week 328 Smile and at Crafty Calendar January Challenge make it flowery.

Here is my card:

 I have decided that in 2019 I want to improve my watercoloring skills and realise that the only way to do that is to practice. So here is my first practice of the year. the stamp is from Woodware and I painted it with my Zig real brush pens after stamping with gina k amalgam ink. I am pleased to say that there was absolutely no bleed.


To give the flower a little bit of bling I used a sparkly gel pen on the inside, see close up:



Once the flower was finished I masked it and splattered the background with black and red watercolour.



Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate.
