A Friendship Bouquet


Happy Labor Day today for those who celebrate it!

My card today started with a watercolored panel, sponged with cracked pistachio and salty ocean Distress inks. I matted it with black and placed it on a pale aqua card base, adding a white border done with a MS doily punch. The flower bouquet and sentiment were done with SU! Beautiful Bouquet stamps and Bouquet Bunch framelits.  

Thanks for stopping by and I hope your week is off to a fantastic start!

Great background and a pretty bouquet - I thought at first you'd actually die cut and stuck on loads of individual flowers until I took a closer (enlarged) look.
