Another inch Strip

 Another water coloured inch strip on similar lines to this card. I changed up the colours and sentiment, and decided to use some striped paper as the edge.

Cornflower 1

When people ask me "What is your favourite flower?", I find it impossible to give one answer! There are so many I love ... Delphiniums, Sweat Peas, Roses, Lavender, Hydrangeas, Freesias, Bougainvillea .... and Cornflowers. I had such a lovely garden of Cornflowers last spring.

So for today, I will pick cornflowers ...

I used Distress Inks : Chipped Sapphire with a little Black Soot and Pine Needles to make my watercolour background. 

It might have been difficult to work out where the washi was ! So you can see it was the cornflower. I love this washi!

I paired it with the cornflower die cut.

Monochrome Flowers

Some very soft blues and silver for a Sympathy card. The dies are coloured with Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire - I love the different colours that come out of Distress Inks. Who would have thought this soft blue would come out of the deep blue of Chipped Sapphire?!
