Hero Arts Mum

Hey Guys! Happy middle of the week! I'm back with another card using this gorgeous mum from Hero Arts and with another entry into the A Blog Named Hero: Put a Flower On It challenge. This flower has got so much detail in the petals and is really fun to watercolor. I used only two colors (Melon Mambo and Pacific Point) but they blended easily into many different shades of prettiness.

I used Distress Oxide Inks to blend the background (Peacock Feathers, Lucky Clover, Crushed Pistachio and Twisted Citron) and then spritzed water over it to create the droplets. I also flicked some black ink over the top of that.

I popped the mum and heat embossed sentiment up on foam adhesive to give them some dimension. Then I added sequins and put it all on a Night of Navy card base.
