This weeks TSC was to do a Summer Theme using green, brown, and light yellow, corner punch and a border. I chose this image by Magenta of a cat under a palm tree. I also used SU You are my Sunshine for the sun and cloud. My base card is green, (camera is color blind) same as the Ribbon (my border) and the mini brads. Used yellow and cb, and brown mat for image. This image is completely done with watercolors, I used the aquapen that Pat Smethers showed me how to use and a palate of childrens watercolor paints. It was fun and totally outside my comfort zone. I need alot more practice with that watercolor stuff.
Thanks for looking, hope you like it.
