March Swap

The Theme is Spring Flowers

I knew that I would use the free stamps given away with Making Cards - no longer being published I understand.
I stamped all the pots three times and then fussy cut two images.  
I stamped the pots on each card, masking on the third card.  This is one of the rare times I have tried this and I am not quite sure whether I have succeeded.  Maybe I should have painted stronger colours for the background so that the middle pot was a bit more grounded ... dunno.
I then masked off the pots and stamped the flowers.
I used my paints to watercolour the images and the background, sort of suggesting they are sitting outside on the potting table!!
I know that the cards look a little curly but I took the photos before the backing details had been added.  I am getting even more forgetful than usual, opening the envelopes just to take photos is very annoying!!  lol

I received the following:


Embossed sentiment, silver splatters....has to be InkyFingeredCat.
