12 Days Of Christmas Inspiration & Giveaways - Day 11 Pure Florals Poinsettia

 

 

Hello & Happy Wednesday. 

I'm here to get you over the mid week hump with some more festive floral inspiration. It was only right that another of the Uniko November Release, Pure Florals Poinsettia got some inky attention during this series and I was inspired to get out my comfort zone a little with a watercolour technique.





As you know I don't always have the patience to colour and I wouldn't say it's my strength either when it comes to paper crafting and card making. So I am always keen on 'quicker' options to add colour! This one is a fun one using ink pads or ink refills and an acrylic stamp block.




I used some watercolour card for this and a red trio of colours, Honeysuckle, Poppy and Cranberry. I think this technique is better watched than explained, so be sure to watch the video over on Uniko's YouTube Channel today HERE.




And how fun does this flower look paired with the Background Block Pinstripe. A little busier than my normal CAS style too, but I really enjoyed making this card. 

Todays giveaway is the Pure Florals Poinsettia clear stamp set and my question today is have you used this technique and what colours would you use? 

Be sure to get your comments in quick as I will be drawing and announcing winners on Friday 13th December. 

Thanks for all the love and support for this fun series so far. I will be back tomorrow with the final day of inspiration.
