I loved the inspiration photo for Papertrey Ink's May blog hop and knew I had to take time to play along! It inspired me to watercolor some florals while dreaming of eating raspberry sherbert - lol! I'm a big fan of layering large sentiments over an image, so this was perfect to use one of my fave PTI sets - Wet Paint! I layered 3 'happy' dies to give it more dimension. A touch of Wink of Stella clear shimmer marker was added to the peony center. I used a Copic marker (Y02) to add some highlights to the peonies and the Copic B0000 was added to 'ground' the jar.
STAMPS: Wet Paint, Peonies on Parade, Quart Jar - all by PTI. PAPER: Raspberry Fizz (PTI), Ranger watercolor CS, Black and White printed CS by Recollections. INK: Memento Tuxedo Black, Picked Raspberry, Spun Sugar, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Tumbled Glass distress inks by Tim Holtz.
