Serenity Birthday

My card today was inspired by this lovely print … Nakasa Serenity 2 Piece Framed Acrylic Painting Print Set.  PG1

I'm also joining the Canasta Meld Challenge at the Virtual Stamping Night at SplitcoastStampers.  Like Canasta, the challenge was to create a meld by stamping the same image repeatedly across the card.  I stamped mine six times, so I almost got a Canasta.

I used my MISTI and Creative Corners to line-up my Impression Obsession Full Bloom Hollyhocks.  I started by stamping them on Watercolor Paper in Antique Linen Distress Ink, and then again in Catherine Pooler Daydream & Eucalyptus, misting with water before each impression (with several 2nd impression stampings without re-inking for lighter color).

I trimmed my piece into two panels like the inspiration photo and mounted them on kraft cardstock.  The sentiment is from Impression Obsessions Birthday Wishes (which has apparently been discontinued).
