I made this for Sabrina's Ways To Use It challenge this week. One of my summer goals is to learn to watercolor. Last week, when I went camping I took a bin of watercolor supplies and a couple of books from the library. I just played a bit and this is what came out on the third paper.
Thanks for looking!

Wow, I'm so impressed to read that you painted this yourself, Toni. Watercolours are actually great for camping, I've found , at least you'll always have water. I like the spattering and love the little ladybird - and Birgit's technique frames it so perfectly, especially with the ribbon for an added rustic feel.

Such a pretty watercolored sunflower! Great job with it! I love the frame and I need to try that technique, because I love the look! Beautiful card, Toni!

This is stunning and so beautifully water colored. I am super impressed this is only your 3rd water color piece! I love the framing around this gorgeous bloom and the super cute little lady bug too! ~Karen.
