Today I am sharing 3 more of my hand painted cards.
I have been trying to get more confident with using water colours and these cards are some of the results.
They are painted with my Gansai Tambi water colour paints using just 2 colours. One for the branches and one for the leaves. I started by doing a watercolour wash with the same green to form my base. The berries are enamel dots and I added a tiny Christmas bauble with glitter paste through a stencil. The panel was cut with a plain die and the sentiment was stamped and heat embossed.
Here is another along the same lines:
I am sharing the first card at TicTacToe 088. I have used the middle line of wreath, any colour and any shape die.
My third card is the same idea but this time I was a bit braver and added some flowers. The thanks sentiment is stamped in a similar colour using Catherine Pooler ink.
I am sharing this one at Dragonfly Journeys #140 - thanks. I sent it to a very special friend who is always there for me and is also a very talented 'proper' artist.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.
