Floral for Freshly Made Sketches

Hello All!

We have a new sketch up from Amy; a great basic sketch with lots of room to play!

I wanted to use this beautiful Impression Obsession flower, Just Rosy; it was the perfect size to nest in the Impression Obsession Tea Cocoa die. The sentiment is apparently discontinued as I am not finding it on the website.   I am linking up to Impression Obsession's current challenge, 'Pour One On'.   Enabler Alert!!!  Impression Obsession has a sale right now, 25% off their entire site!  They have an amazing selection of stamps and dies!  The flower and cup combo was a perfect element for the circle on the sketch~

My colors are from Just Us Girls~

I got out my Arteza Real Brush Pens to color my Just Rosy floral that was stamped on  Canson Watercolor Paper in Memento Desert Sand Ink,  and then fussy cut the flower out.  The Tea Cocoa cup was die cut on white paper and watercolored with a mix of green and blue colors.
The background was done with the same Arteza Brush Pens; I scribbled some color onto a craft mat and then picked it up with a large wet watercolor brush and brushed it on the background.  I let it dry and then repeated with a different color.  Lastly, I splattered the background with watered down black acrylic paint.
 I'm also linking up to Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, 'Anything Goes'.
That's it for me.  Stop by the blog and check out the amazing inspiration from the rest of the team!
