Watercolour Floral Card with Blooming Marvellous Stamp

A project from our live show CATCH UP with Toni for a THURSDAY LAUNCH in the HTCN studio broadcast 18th Nov 21 Show Two · 11/18/2021

Create a loose, artistic watercolour-effect card using the two-part lamination stamp. Stamp the solid colour portion first with water spray, then layer the outline stamp to achieve a painted, impressionistic look with soft colour bleeding.
