The Details

The heat embossed image just made watercoloring this floral spray of roses so easy. The rainbow of flowers, polka dots, and Nuvo drops all work together to make this one happy hello. The Hello sentiment was die cut several times and layered to create dimension. Check out the video below for all the details and to see how this card came together.

Distress Ink colors: Saltwater Taffy, Scattered Straw, Bundled Sage, Salvaged Patina, and Shaded Lilac

Technique Tip: change up the embossed image color for a completely different look to those flowers. Either use a different color embossing powder or stamp in a pretty color and emboss in clear.
