A few days ago I was having a play with some watercolour card to use as a background, but as I'm not very familiar with using this technique, it was a bit of a mishmash and didn't turn out as I had imagined. However, as I looked at it, I decided I would put it through the cuttlebug using the Tattered Florals die from Tim Holz, and create a flower to add to a card.
The flower was layered and finished with a pearl brad, and the lace is from Green Tara and is self adhesive. The idea for the watercolour background came from Vicky at
www.craftingclare.blogspot.com and is something I will play with some more as the thought of creating a background is quite appealing.
Have a crafty day!
It may not have made the background you were after Helen but my goodness, what a stunning flower it's made! Thanks for the mention! Vicky x
