Happy...

weekend!!! yay!!!!  Today I'm popping in to share a card I've created for the latest Winnie & Walter Rerun Challenge.  Now I don't happen to have the rerun stamp set they are featuring (Addie's Garden), but I do have the In Bloom: Lola's Bouquet stamp set and I was so inspired by Shay's gorgeous card that I had to play along...

To create this card I started by masking and stamping my flowers and leaves onto watercolor card stock.  I then used inks and a water brush to add colors to my flowers.  Next I trimmed just along the bottom edge of the stamped images.  I then layered this onto patterned paper, added a strip to go behind my diecut "happy" and ta-da!  I love the simplicity of this card while still playing with patterns and stamped images.

Here is Shay's gorgeous card that inspired mine...

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
