I used AALL & Create #801 stamps to create this card.  I stamped the image twice onto watercolour card with Nocturne Versafine Clair ink.  I coloured the images with my watercolours and left to dry.  I added more watercolour where I wanted shadows or a richer colour and completely coloured the background of one stamped image.  

I kept one of the images whole and trimmed it down. I glued it onto an A6 card and it has a 'frame'.  I fussy cut the bird, butterfly and flowers and shaped them before adhering onto the base with silicon glue.

I used a Clarity Crafts sentiment stamp onto a snippet of white card and glued that onto my image.  I finished with Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops.   Back soon x
