So, very quickly, both cards are made using Brushos in Purple and Scarlet, the first card was used sparingly, and the other card was made using much more water.
Once dry, I stamped the images from Stampendous called Bold Sprigs in Black Soot Distress ink. The watercolour card doesn't tend to stamp images well, so I smooshed the ink pad onto an acrylic block, then picked up the ink with a little water on my brush, and painted in the gaps on the berries and butterflies. The sentiment is from Uniko Studios, stamped in Dusty Concorde Distress ink.
Then I added some glue pen dots onto the sprigs and butterflies, and added some Glamour Dust.
For my second card, I cut a rectangular panel using an MFT die Cross Stitched Rectangles, and layered it onto another cut in Cherry Cobbler.
The die cut wording is also cut in Cherry Cobbler, and is a die from Serendipity Stamps.
I fancied a bit of sparkle on this one too, so I added some glue pen dots, and glamour dust to the panel.
Well I hope I haven't bored you this week with my berry inspired makes, but I have enjoyed making them!

Such pretty cards Pauline, loving the berry colours too ;) Viv xx
I really like the wispy care free feeling of your first card, so pretty Pauline!! And the background on your second card is fabulous!
Two very different effects using your brushos but equally as fabulous as each other. I adore your first card, your background looks great with your black stamping.
Thanks for sharing with us.
