OLW 82 Swirly

I find swirls and flourishes wonderful to work with so it wasn’t hard to pick a stamp to use for Susan’s one layer challenge this week.
I used water colour paper to maximize any spritzing or blending I did. I stamped the text stamp first; you might have noticed I keep using this stamp from Penny Black; it makes a lovely background. Next I inked the Posies stamp with markers, spritzed it and stamped it adding a little more water here and there with a sponge after stamping. After adding a little pink sponging there just happened to be a gap in the amongst the stems for a cute little sentiment.
Supplies:
Stamps: Letter Background, Posies, …to you (Penny Black)
Inks: Pirouette Pink, Regal Rose, Old Olive, Always Artichoke (SU)
Cardstock: MFP Watercolour card stock

You use MFP watercolor paper, but what does MFP stand for? I would like to look into buying some. Thank you.
So pretty with its soft, springlike colours. Must be the springlike weather inspiring you! 🙂 That PB background is going on my wishlist, I think!
Very pretty! TFS 😉
