You are Amazing | Peony Floral | Uniko

 Hi Friends,

Am here today with a floral card again. This time tried to use some muted tones and kept me away from darker tones a lot.

Am a Mixedmedia artist at heart who loves loads of textures and layering. But here I have kept a clean and simple design using a watercolored floral as a focal point. Noline coloring technique is my only way to color as stamped lines makes me blank always. 

Uniko's Peony florals stampset is my most favorite stampset and I have played several times earlier. Check here, here, here, here.

Over to my card,

• Stamped Uniko Peony florals onto Arches CP Watercolor paper using Antique Linen DI for Noline watercoloring.
• Used Prima The classics watercolor pan set for this card.
• The floral is then fussy cut and kept aside to prepare the loose watercolored bg onto Arches HP using the left over paints.
• Diecut using MFT stitched Rec Stax die.
• Stamped the sentiment form Uniko Just because stamp set using Mudra Mai jet black ink pad. 
• Liberally splashed white acrylic paint splatters over the fussy cut floral and foam mounted onto the watercolored focal panel.
• Then its foam mounted onto Cairo cream A2 sized top fold cardbase.
• Finally few dew droplets are added for interest.

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by!
