It is grey and gloomy outside today, so how about a card in warm colors?
I used the pretty new Taylored Expressions set Wildflower Bouquet that my daughter gifted me with, and stamped it with Versafine ink on watercolor paper, then watercolored it with distress markers. I was inspired by the following challenges...
Share Joy - sketch and tic-tac-toe (watercolor, flowers, coloring) - for a friend who sent a sweet email the other day!
The Card Concept - flowers and mason jar... with a "sort of clean with lots of layers" card
- is that a style??
The Paper Players - colors
Sharing Smiles TicTacToe - Thank You, Distress Ink, Plants
On a totally unrelated note... do you enjoy using sequins on your cards? I find myself remembering making dolls and ornaments out of styrofoam with hundreds and hundreds of sequins and little pins when I was about 7 or 10. One little blond 4th of July doll with extra furry pipe cleaner arms and a bodice and skirt of red, white and blue sequins keeps coming to mind... Isn't it interesting how fashions come round again with a new twist??
Thanks so much for stopping by. Especially you challenge DT members who are busy, busy, busy. Thank you for taking time to look and comment!
