Print the free download and colour in the lettering so you have your brush lettering phrase ready to decorate.
If you can't print onto card you can always stick the paper to a thicker piece of card to make a sturdier print.
Using a darkish colour add curved lines coming towards your lettering, these will act as your first foliage branches
Add teardrop shapes up the curved lines and colour in to create a foliage motif.
Top Tip - Try and keep the leave of a similar size to give a nice consistent look.
Work along each curved line giving them leaves, so that the border begins to look fuller. Be careful with the paint pens not to smudge them, as they take little longer to dry than felt tips.
Next, add in a lighter coloured stem with similar curved line, if you don't have space between your foliage just add them in where there is white space.
Now add elongated tear drop shapes to act as the leaves to the flower stem.
Add a wavy edged oval, colour in, this will be the flower head.
You could use a variety of colours to create a wild meadow feel or stick to a limited colour palette as I have.
Add details to your leaf shapes with a lighter colour, use the tip of the POSCA pen to lightly dash over the leaf areas. And with the florals, add a darker colour over the top of the leaves to contrast with the the foliage next to them, add a small dark dot in the middle of your floral to create its centre.
