Spring Crocuses

It's spring time in the northern hemisphere, but it's getting chilly down here.

I watercoloured the die cuts, with a light touch of embossing paste through a stencil for the background.

Plant Lady

I haven't made cards since before Christmas ... time to dig out some of those new supplies that I bought last year, but have never been used!

On my first card, I coloured in with distress inks, but not using watercolour card.  Not the best results, but I will still use it.

On my second card I did the background with distress inks and Taylor Expressions brushes.

The plant lady and plants were coloured with Copics. This will be for my mother ... she is an amazing gardener!

I also made some plant labels to stick in a pot when planting seeds.

Happy Daisy

Don't you think that daisies are such fresh, happy flowers?!

I coloured the outer die cut in C1 Copic, and yellow and grey in the center of the petals. Stamped some "paint" stamps and doodled the black lines.

Thinking of You

I had a few leaves left over from another card ... and trying to use up the bits and pieces as quickly as I can.

Oh Happy Day

We started our year with a holiday in the Maldives, so on my return, I had to make a card "on the water"!
