AEI♥U Watercolor Challenge

When is a cupcake not a cupcake?  When it's a bouquet of watercolored flowers!
 
Let me explain...

I designed a card for this month's Avery Elle Watercolor Challenge using their Cupcakes stamp set. Now ya get it? ;) I didn't get my card entered for the challenge because I fell asleep early last night! oops!

This card was super easy! I love how it turned out!


To layer the images, I make some masks of the flowers and flag with Eclipse Art Masking Tape. That part is a little time consuming...but soooo worth it! The masks can be used again and again on future projects.

In the center of the flowers I used Glossy Accents and then sprinkled on crystal glitter.


Clean and simple...just the way I like it.


Thanks for stopping by!

Absolutely stunning, I never thought to use the cupcake set this way. Thanks to your beautiful creation I now have another creative way to use this stamp set. TFS.
