Bird Haven Watercolour

I haven't posted in a while and I've been remiss in visiting all my favourite blogs and bloggers. I just couldn't get interested in crafting. I'd look at all the lovely supplies I have and then walk away. I recently came across the 30 Day Color Challenge on the Daily Marker ( http://www.thedailymarker.com/category/30-day-color-challenge/ ) and thought that maybe it could be what gets me interested again. Through that, I found a lovely Blog Hop sponsored by Pretty Pink Posh.

There are the MOST AMAZING watercoloured cards being posted over there. It is really worth seeing!!

Seriously, check it out!

I do love my watercolours, so I decided to share this card which is probably my favourite card I ever made. I used a stamp from Heartfelt creations Bird Haven set.This is a stamp that I LOVE using with watercolours.

I used Peerless watercolour paints, Impression Obsessions rolled flower dies, and Spellbinders Captivating Squares. The woodgrain background was cut with Spellbinders Basic Lattice. The paper flowers were painted and then given a dusting of glitter because I can't resist adding a bit of sparkle.Something I noticed is shared by many others!

Thanks for looking!

  3. Hi Shona! I was thinking about you in the last few weeks!
    I have been suffering from sinus/allergy headaches the past few months, but such is life!!! I wish they'd figure out how to do sinus transplants or immune system upgrades :-D
    Your card is so amazingly beautiful! It should be framed!
    I also just posted to the Watercolor hop. I may try to get one more done and posted, but between my headache and needing to do some daily living tasks, such as laundry, bills, cooking, I may not.
    It's good to see you on your blog again. I hope that you are inspired and get your crafty mojo back :-)
