So I needed a quick card for a gardener friend of mine.  The key work here was quick.  I needed something fast, but didn’t want to lose the beauty of a floral garden card.  So I pulled out Joset’s Color my Flowers stamp set and some watercolor paints.

Step One:  Stamp out the floral images onto some Watercolor paper using watercolor friendly ink.

Step Two:  Watercolor the images.  I used my metallic watercolor paints for this project.

Step Three:  Using the coordinating Color My Flowers die set, die cut the images.

Step Four:  Die cut a hexagon from the Hexagons die set from a piece of printed paper in the Relax in the Garden paper pack.  Adhere the hexagon to the an A2 card frame using some 10mm Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  Trim off any paper the hangs over the edge.

Step Five:  Add the die cut flowers and leaves onto the card overlapping each other.

Step Six:  Stamp the sentiment from the Gardeners Red Rubber Stamp in grey ink.  Add a few drop of Nuvo to finish the card.

While the card my have been a quick craft, I still think it still speaks the beauty of a floral garden.
