This bookmark and card took a little longer to make then I expected, but I really like how it turned out. I was going for cool colors with a pop of warm for the sunset/sunrise. I watercolored on a sheet from my encyclopedia. The bookmark turned out with the cool with a pop of warm, but after adding all the brown on the card I looked at it and it looked like warm with a pop of blue.

Your card and book mark are awesome MariLynn!!! WOW, I am impressed. I love the neutral bg and I love how you watercolored on an encyclopedia page. Your stitching is always awesome. This mixability thing is a challenge for me.

Really like the stitching around your oval and the card. The print behind your image looks great on the oval with those surrounding squares lovely card.
