Watercolored Gladiola
ETA: A huge thanks to the Allsorts Challenge DT for selecting this card in their top 5!
I took a break from my copics and decided to watercolor my image with ink pads and an aquapainter. The beautiful gladiola is one of the birth month flowers from Sweet N Sassy stamps. The image was stamped with versafine onyx and watercolored with soft sky, blue bayou, and olive ink pads from SU. I accented the flowers with crystal stickles.
