I stamped and embossed the image with white embossing powder on watercolor paper. I then used watercolors to add a whole bunch o' pink to the design. I highlighted some areas and made some darker to create depth. I super duper love watercolor paints. I really and truly do. A Wink of Stella black glitter brush added a touch of sparkle to their beaks. YAY! for sparkle!!!
The sentiment is a perfectly simple font from Lil' Inker Designs, called Mom and Dad Sentiments, and I love how well it worked with these little flamingos! SO much fun!
You can find all of the supplies I used in the links below.
Have a Happy!
Fantastic watercolours!!

ReplyDeleteWe just saw flamingos at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and I SO hoped to get a picture of two flamingos in this position (but no luck)...what a sweet stamp! Your watercoloring skills are amazing, and I LOVE how you accented the heart shape between the two flamingos. Great black border accent, too! Thanks for joining us at CASology this week!
