Welcome to day 2 of Flourishes New Release week. The set we are showing today
is called Paperwhites. These are such pretty flowers and I just happened to see today that
they are out in stores for the holiday season now. I did some research (thanks Leslie)
to find out what would be the best way to color these flowers.
I chose to watercolor this image with markers. I tried
to keep the florals white but highlighted with just a little bit of yellow and then shadowed
with blues. I used this pretty paper from Memory Box Tinsel that is available at Flourishes.
Flourishes Cotton linen ribbon and a sentiment from this set and the card was complete.
