Hi everyone :-D
It's time for a new challenge at Crafty Creations Challenges.
Our theme for this fortnight is #297 - Out on a Limb. We want to see birds, owls, squirrels etc. on branches or similar on your projects.
Here is a card I made, Blooming with Happiness Card.
I used From the Heart Stamps 'Apple Blossom Bird' digital stamp set.
I printed the image and sentiment on a white watercoloring paper and colored it in watercoloring technique, using Stabilo pens (markers), fine brush and water. I learned that from a great video tutorial by Julia Altermann, how to watercolor using inexpensive Stabilo pens.
I was very satisfied with my coloring, so I decided to leave this card CAS. I cut out design paper panel, glued it on a card base, cut piece of panel with image away and glued it on the card.
Stop by the Crafty Creations Challenges to see gorgeous creations from my Design Team Mates and join us in this challenge. We are looking forward to see your projects. :-D We also have a great prize for one lucky winner. Our sponsor for this fortnight´s challenge is Jaime from our DT and she is going to give the lucky winner a gift to her Close to My Heart Shop.
