I chose this photo with its trailing ivy. Replaced the ivy with shamrocks for a St. Pat's card. Watercolored the foliage and then came back in with colored pencils for shading on the centers.

I love your take on your inspiration piece. I am putting this into my favorites so I can use your card as inspiration for St. Patrick day cards and practice I need on my watercoloring skills. Thanks, Sallie!

Nobody can make shamrocks look as good as you do, Sallie! These are Amazing! I Love the touches of color on your wc paper and those splatters really add a lot of style to this St. Pat's card~

the pencils add so much texture to the leaves that looks really good too.
