For today’s blog hop I used the newly released Palette Perfection Bundle and Watercolor Paper Set (Hot-Pressed, 5" x 7" Loose Sheets, 30 sheets/set) to create two watercolour floral backgrounds. The Palette Perfection Bundle comprises 10 exquisite Artists' Watercolor Tubes, including Permanent Yellow Deep, Opera Lemon, Phthalo Green, Dark Cyan, Phthalo Blue, Prussian Blue, Quinacridone Violet, Quinacridone Magenta, Toluidine Red, and Titanium White. 

 
I started by stamping my floral images from Vase Fillers Stamp Set with a light ink (I used Limestone Crisp Dye Ink) onto the watercolour papers. Next, I used my watercolours to very loosely paint over the stamped images. 

For my second background I used only two stamps and only three watercolour tubes.

To finish both designs I added some watercolour splatters. I'm really pleased with how both backgrounds turned out, they will make a great base for my cards. 

That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Kelly Griglione!
Thank you for stopping by today!
