Hi, it’s Gaylynn here with another installment of my Watercolor Wednesday series. I am sharing handmade watercolor card accents along with soft floral stamping.
This card was made by stamping the florals and the lace in two colors of ink. Then a separate watercolor panel was created and trimmed for coordinating card accents.
Sentiment: Never stop making wishes.

Soft Floral Stamping + Watercolor Card Accents
By Gaylynn Martling for Unity’s Watercolor Wednesday
(See also the video tutorial for this project.)
Begin by stamping the main panel onto regular cardstock. I used two colors for the flowers and for the lace trim.
I stamped twice using the Mini Misti with Ranger sap green archival ink and MFT grapesicle ink.
Distress ink was used to make my own watercolor card accents. I added 3 colors to 1 strip of watercolor paper.
Before adding splatters, I masked the stamping using the stamp backing paper and repositionable adhesive.
Distress ink pads used: dusty concord, milled lavender and peeled paint.
Once dry, I cut 2 flags and punched 1 heart for card accents. Everything was layered and embellished to finish.
Here is another look.
I made a quick video tutorial for this.
