Watercolor homework [days 3 and 4]

Actually, this homework should be for days 3 and 4 and the work I posted previously for days 3 and 4 should go in days 5 and 6.  Sigh.  I goofed, but I'm going to straighten it out.

 I made this super simple thank you card for my daughter to give to a friend and used my go to layout.  I stamped the images from Fresh Cut Florals (Wplus9) in Distress Inks/markers and softened them with a small round watercolor brush and water (of course!) 

 

Have a great day!

Watercolor class homework days 5 and 6 and Virginia's View Challenge #3

Here's my homework for class days 3 and 4   5 and 6. Actually, this work fits days 5 and 6 and I re-did my work for days 3 and 4.  Pretty messy attempt and I totally used a butterfly painting I found on Pinterest as inspiration for this card.  Practice makes perfect and this was fun so I'll be practicing. :) **Let me add that I wanted the coloring to be a bit messy, I just wanted a more controlled mess. LOL**

 

 

I added a tiny amount of faux stitching to the sentiment panel because I thought it needed a little something added and as a bonus, I get to enter this card in the current Virginia's View Challenge: Stitching. 

 

 

Have a great day!

Watercolor for Card Makers: Days 1 and 2 homework

I am taking the delightful Watercolor for Card Makers class--it's not too late to sign up and you won't regret it!

Here's my homework for Days 1 and 2:

I had to take a pic with my iphone.  My daughter has taken off with my SD card for my camera.

I used my $5 watercolor set  to make this funky background, added some stamped images and boom, it's done. 

 I kept this card very simple and plan to give it to my husband for taking care of me, the kids, the dog and our house while I am recovering from an injury that has left me unable to handle all the things I normally handle. 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
