Hello and welcome
I’m back with a card for HLS Watercolour Challenge for June 2019 with an optional twist of LOVE! However, anything watercolour is just fine.
This month, my card is a little different as it is almost monochromatic.
The image is from Docrafts Papermania – Lucy Cromwell – Teacups stamp set that I white heat embossed and water coloured using Blueprint Sketch Distress Ink.
The side panel features some ink smooching with the same colour and a sliver of silver card along the side.
The sentiment from the same set was silver heat embossed over the coffee heart from The Ton Tea Party Stamp Set.
Please head over to our blog and check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team! I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month. Good luck!

Beautiful in all it’s blue glory Helen. Amazing blending and I too love how you placed the sentiment in your heart. Lovely smooching on the side with the tiny strip of gold. Love that ink colour also. Going to the craft show on Saturday – wonder if I will run into you there!

This is a stunning card and so pretty in the blue colours. Perhaps it may be a little busier than we expected as we were asking for less than one third of the card to be covered.Yor embossing is beautifully crisp too. Thank you for letting us see this at Less is More xx
