Love Card Without Hearts


The July Mid-Month Challenge for OWH is to make a love card without using hearts. I used a rose image from the GinaK Stately Flowers 6 stamp set and colored it first with Tombow markers in green and dark pink. I stamped the image, then water colored it with an aqua brush. The mats were cut with Lil Inker stitched rectangles and the sentiment circle was done with a bottlecap die and my Quickutz. 
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope your day is a great one!

Love any rose, so when I saw this one, had to zip back in to say how much I admire your watercoloring on this one. Perfect shading...and I like the way the outline stayed defined while you did the wonderful look in the petals. TFS
