PRETTY IN PINK

I saw the idea for the Hello Friend card online.  I didn't have all the exact supplies, but I worked with what I had and I was pleased with the outcome.  I started with Canson Watercolor paper.  I used Distress Oxide ink in a pretty pink called Kitsch Flamingo and the Altenew Watercolor Stripes Stencil.  I used a rectangle die to cut out the center of the card panel.  The Eucalyptus die is from The Greetery.  I die cut with the watercolor paper and then blended on Distress Oxide Peeled Paint to the leaves.  The other leaf is from Spellbinders Simply Perfect Layered Blooms - blended with the same Peeled Paint ink.  I sprayed a bit of water on the branches and the Oxide ink reacts to the water with white blotches.  The sentiment Hello Friend is from Waffle Flower Simply Said.  

The second card is a 4 bar sized card.  I used the rectangle that was cut out of the first card as my layer.  The floral die is from The Greetery called Wildflower Mix.  I used pink & green paper scraps to die cut the floral.  The Happy Birthday sentiment is from The Greetery called Market Basics Sentiments.
