I used watercolor wonder crayons and aqua painter to color the wood swing and then used similar colors to add a watercolor background on the sentiment. more info in this post on my blog: https://stampwithdiane.blogspot.com/...-birthday.html

My sister would love this card - her husband built a set much like this for the back yard some 40 years ago . . . . but it brings back memories for me too! The last time I was home to visit, me, my sis & mom sat down on the swing to have our picture taken - the wood was SO OLD that the chains came free and down we went!!! (Luckily no one was injured)

So soft and lovely! Wonderful soft restful colors! Great design and elements! Love the way you used the same soft colors in the sentiment and the wood grain background is perfect with this!

Perfect idea for old wood! We had one of these when I was a kid - loved it.
