I kept this card minimal
because I really wanted the flower to be the star of the show which
it is. I think I must have used undiluted ink to colour the
stencilled background snippet as it really pops but that’s good
because it works beautifully with the beautiful lilac stamp. I was a
random linky choice at Allsorts in April and I won this beautiful
lilac flower stamp. For my first play with it I decided I wanted to
try out no lines colouring technique which with hindsight was a bit
too hard, however I took my time outlining then colouring each of the
lilac flowers and I think for a first go it’s come out quite well
and beautifully. Unusually I am happy too lol!
I opted for shades of pink and
lilac but next time I play with this stamp I am going to go full on
lilac and full on purple lol! It’s so gorgeous it’s going to be
fun to paint and colour and create more projects. Thank you so much
for taking the time to visit and comment. I really do appreciate it
and I hope you get some time to do what you love to do soon ttfn

That's another beautiful bloom Karen, Lilac I am thinking and we have one of a very similar deep pink in our garden, many thanks for joining us at Allsorts challenge.

Good luck shrinking those bulging bags. It's so easy to end up with a lot of spare parts. You put this together beautifully. That background panel is WOW! You picked a toughie for your first no-line coloring, but you did a lovely job on it and looks wonderful with the background. Delightful shimmer. Thanks so much for linking up with us at Double D!
This is one gorgeous colour combo and you must have been so happy to have won such a beautiful stamp. Love how you created the floral background and the splatters add just enough interest. I'm so glad you joined us at TIME OUT!
A gorgeous card! Thanks for joining us at Happy Little Stampers Watercolor Challenge.
