And it just happens to be the Iowa state flower...


Another Stampin B's challenge response.
Challenge #11 - Watercolor. If their main goal is to create fun - their challenges certainly achieve that!

This stamp was another unused 'had-ta-buy-it' purchase. It is a large background stamp by Rubber Stampede - Wild Rose Background.

I colored in the flowers with watercolor pencils. I coated the inage with water-based varnish.The image was then split into threes and mounted on black then on a SU! cardstock.

I 'smudged' the edges of the base vanilla color card with Distress Ink Fired Brick. There is a polka dot layer of MME Wild Asparagus. The edges of the polka dot are 'smudged' with Fired Brick Red and a little black.

The center panel is attached with dimensionals. The side panels are adhered directly to the polka dot layer.

Upper left and lower right corners of stamped image have SU! Hodgepodge hardware.

You can get up close with the card by clicking on the image.
