A process video showing how I created a blooming card. I made this as a Mother's Day card, but by changing the sentiment, the bouquet can be adjusted to other holidays and purposes!

I start by stamping a bunch of flowers. This time I'm using a green ink instead of my usual go-to black for a more tender look. I then use watercolors and brush tipped, water-based markers to color the flowers. After coloring I cut the elements loose so I can layer them and build a bouquet. I use a baby blue self-made card base and adhere the flowers on top using both foam tape and craft glue in order to create a dimensional composition. I finish the card with a stamped sentiment and some epoxy dots.

Thank you for watching!
