Lily & Emeralds

 


Lovely layered lilies - a jewel in the garden and with jewels here.  The background is made by misting shades of yellow and green then overlaid with metallic gold spray.  When dry, stamped and splattered. The lilies are coloured using Distress Inks and smooshing technique in lots of layers of colour.  I love this  watercolour technique!  I used 3Dfoam tape to get dimension in the flowers and leaves.  I decided not to put a  sentiment.

Die: ? Sizzix  

Stamps: unknown.  The scripty one is so old, one of my first ever stamps

Also: Distress Inks, gems
