I have been wanting to ink up this Impression Obsession image for some time, but time is such a funny thing! It is called Shabby Chic Bouquet.
I wanted to practice no line coloring, and this was quite the image to practice on! a bit of a challenge, but I was up for it. I stamped the image in Memento Desert Sand ink onto Arches Watercolor paper. I am one to always try to cut corners $$, but I have to say, that just does not work with watercolor paper. It really does make all the difference.
The rest is just no line coloring with my Daniel Smith Watercolors. I am pretty happy with how it turned out. I used a sentiment from the Sweet Celebration Stamp Set, which happens to be in the clearance section. It is a longer sentiment, but I cut it apart to get the 'I Love You' and be able to stamp it multiple times.
Impression Obsession's current challenge is 'Love is in the Air'.

oh you should be happy with how it turned out! The colouring is superb and I like the added strips of red at the side. Super idea to use the black for the sentiments-it add a lovely contrast. Thanks for joining CASology.
