To begin my first card, I first stamped the flower image from Altenew Charmed stamp set using black ink then color it with Copic Markers.
I also added some Pretty Pink Posh sequins in Sparkling Clear.
To begin, I die-cut some flowers from watercolor paper. I watercolored the die-cut from lightest to darkest like the image to see below.
