Make It Monday #165: Artsy Watercolour Backgrounds

After watching Betsy's tutorial for this weeks MIM I thought of Dawn McVey's sympathy card during the Cutting Garden countdown. I used my new spun sugar mini distress ink pad to stamp the flowers.

When I showed my husband he asked what the splatters were all about but I like them anyway! We have planted some pink and white ranunculous bulbs (that's a royal we as in I only bought the bulbs) and I can't wait until they bloom.

Love
Victoria
