The two that I am sharing today, I made for my friends card order for Easter. Yes sorry a little late at sharing these.
Both are using the same die cuts from Honey Bee - Lovely Layers - Tulips. I was hesitant in buying this die as when I saw samples I knew how large this was, but I caved and bought, but love how this floral takes center stage!
I started by using some Canson 140 lb watercolour paper. I just spritzed using Distress Oxide and Distress inks, along with spritzing water to blend a bit more. (Sorry never wrote the colours down when creating this). One dried I cut out all the floral parts and then adhered together. I also cut the center of the tulip using some gold mirror c/s.
For my background on the first card I used SSS Detail Bohemian Cover plate, then flicked some green ink onto it. This was cut out using MFT scalloped rectangle. Sentiment is from SSS - sentiment strips, which I just trimmed to fit. Added some gold pearls to finish off.
Well that is it for me for today. I hope you have a fantastic day! Stay Cool!

Cards like these are welcome anytime! The color effect you achieved is both beautiful and interesting. No ordinary tulips here! I think they look amazing on your cards, large and filling the front. The gold centers, pearls, and accompanying dies are lovely companions. It's a special treat whenever you post, Pauline!
