Hi! Today's card features the gorgeous Classic Tea Flower stamp from Hero Arts. I normally shy away from any images that need to be colored, but I just couldn't resist this one. I stamped it on watercolor paper and then used Distress Inks mixed with water to color in the flower. Very simple and almost impossible to mess up! ;)
I'll be back tomorrow with one more card to share this week!

Beautiful card! I shy away from coloring too so I will have to give this technique a try.
For someone who shies away from colouring images you've done a super splendid job on this one! Love the colours and the mixture of paper patterns/textures with that yummy Kraft. xx
This card is so pretty! Love the flower and the embellishment you chose! TFS
