Cactus Watercolor Cards - Simon Says Stamp

 Good morning! I'm sharing a card today, and once again I pulled out a few favorite older supplies from Simon Says Stamp. And it's clearly been far too long since I broke out the watercolors - I need to do that more often. It was so much fun! As a bonus, these are nice and flat, so easy to pop in the mail!


These fun images are part of the Suzy's SUCCULENTS Watercolor Prints - and they are so fun for choosing a coloring technique and focusing on that, instead of how you plan to put your card together. I used my Daniel Smith watercolors, and took my time while watching a YouTube live that my friend Lea Lawson was doing! One of them I did in warm cozy tones that felt more realistic for these images. The other one I did in more cool tones for a bit of fun variety! Once they dried, I trimmed the panels down a bit, matted with some coordinating colored cardstock, and then mounted on white cardbases. Finished off with some Tonic glitter drops in Blizzard for a bit of extra sparkle! Here is a closer look at each of these cards:
