April Reminder for Stamping Sensations

Time for a quick reminder that we are half way through this month's 'April Showers Brings May Flowers' challenge theme at Stamping Sensations.
I have this card to share and hope that if you haven't already joined our wonderful challenge that you will create something and join us - there's a whopping £25 voucher to be spent at the 'be Creative!' store as our prize this month!

I used watercolour card and stamped this flower stamp several times, masking as I went along.
I have had this red rubber stamp for a long time and surprisingly have hardly used it!

The leaves are from another set.
I clear embossed the stamped images and watercoloured.

Some Liquid Pearls dotted in the flower centres.

The sentiment stamp is by Inkylicious.

I am a little disappointed with the quality of this pic - each flower was coated with Glossy Accents and they shone off the front but sadly you can't see this and as it is already on it's way to someone, you will just have to take my word for it!!

Joining the challenges at -

Thanks for looking!

Very pretty card Viv...nice to use old stash isn't it! I know what you mean about photographing cards..they always look better in the flesh so to speak...but I can see the sparkle in the middle! xx

A beautiful card Viv, how frustrating it is when you get a beautiful finish on something then it just wont photograph how we want it.

A lovely card. The colors are nice and I like the centers.

Loll did a great job on your blog header. It looks lovely. [Bunny]``

I love your pink flowers Viv which look great with the little dots of liquid pearls in the centres, and the watercolour background and large sentiment finish it beautifully, capturing shine on a photo is well nigh impossible, except with mirri card which then flares which is just as bad..lol. x
