Hi there!
It's time for my favorite challenge of the month at The paper players... Clean & Simple time , and Jaydee is our hostess, who chose the topic/medium... watercolor!
My card:
A closer look:
I used a stencil and watercolor to create my card. Remember when you stencil with watercolor, you need to restrict the amount of water, to avoid color bleeding through the stencil.
The sentiment is from Uniko studio (Flower Power#1)
I am adding my link to the following challenges:
Uniko studio ~ Flowers.
Less is more ~ Repetition ( repeated stenciled rose, stamped sentiment and added pearls).
Freshly made sketches ~ Layout.
Thanks for visiting me today!
Hope to see you join us at The Paper Players!
Hugs

Elegant, classy and beautifully done - what a fab LIM entry! Love the colours you've used for the watercolouring.
So soft and soothing...goes perfectly with the sentiment.
Loving these roses, Hannelie. I can image watercolouring through a stencil isn't easy at all! Great idea to create the ribbon style sentiment strip too.
Thanks for sharing with us.

This is STUNNING!! I cannot believe you used the watercolor through the stencil. I have tried this and it bled EVERYWHERE!! Totally amazing design!! LOVE
Beautiful card Debbs xx
Oh, this is so pretty!
I am in awe of your watercolored stencils--so sharp and crisp! Love the repeated sentiment banner too. Good to have you back with us!
So clean and perfect Hannelie. Absolutely beautiful design and colouring. thanks so much for playing along with us this week at Less is More and Uniko!

Absolutely perfect! Your watercoloring with a stencil is flawless! Gorgeous card!
Love this beautiful card!
Beautiful! Love the stencil water coloring....fun technique!
Love the watercoloured stencil look! You've done well to keep the edges crisp & not bleed under the stencil. I can't quite conquer that even with less water.
Une carte absolument superbe, délicate et pleine de raffinement.

Quite delicate, and GORGEOUS!
Deze is echt super mooi! Mooi zacht en die tekstrand geeft het toch weer een geheel eigen draai... Groetjes, Gerrina
Beautiful roses make a stunning card.
Prachtig effect het watercolour door een stencil! Het tekstrandje staat chic!
Beautifully water coloured Hannelie. This card looks so dreamy with the delicate colours yet is so beautifully elegant at the same time. Thank you so much for joining us at Less is More.

Beautiful card Hannelie, the watercolouring is perfect and looking at the card it looks like it is die cut.
Stunning! Love how the flowers have an almost 3D appearance. Thanks for playing at Uniko.
Very pretty. I thought this was done with a stencil when I first looked and sure enough. Not easy with water colors!
Beautiful job watercoloring through a stencil! And the image you've chosen is gorgeous! So happy to see you at FMS.
you definitely make it look like you used more water than you did using a stencil - wow - at first it looked like you cut out those shapes and the watercolour was on a layer below.
Don't you just love the soft look that water coloring creates? More so when paired with some divinely textured paper!
Gorgeous Hannelie - there is a real technique to watercolouring with a stencil and you most certainly have nailed it!
One word says it all.....GORGEOUS!
Soft, delicate and lovely, Hannelie ... what a wonderful serene feel to your card! Hugs, Anita :)
Baie geluk met die HM by FMS met hierdie lieflike skepping, vrou!!!! Jou waterverf rosies is verskiklik mooi en is so sag en vroulik!!!! Jy het regtig die waterverf so perfek gedoen!!! En die pereltjies is lieflik!!!! Wonderlik mooi, vrou!!!!
Groete
Absolutely GORGEOUS! I am so amazed this was watercolored with a stencil. I love it! XX
