Fashionable watercolor flowers

Lately, I've been seeing watercolors pop up all over the place, and I am lovin' it! Most notably, it's been making it's way in the fashion world - just look at this beautiful skirt!



I love watercoloring itself, so I decided to bring that love to my papercrafting with some cards inspired by this gorgeous skirt.
The main things that spoke to me here were the flowers and the colors. Pink. Navy. Green. Can you which particular paper line this is leading me to? I thought so. ;)
Pulling out my Splendor papers, I got busy...


The flowers were created simple by some repeat stamping, cutting, and crinkling - the perfect thing to do while watching tv!




Flowery and colorful, just like the skirt. :) Thanks for stopping in with me!
