I started to water color the sky and field, then stamped the dandelions with olive green and versamark for the flowers, heat embossed with white powder, then sketched the wildflowers with a black pen and stamped the mills, used a white gel pen for the wind, a red and black for the framing, a gold pen for the mills and finally added some flowers with red and yellow stabilo markers, I hope my recipient will like it, please let me know when the card arrives

Your attention to detail in this card is truly remarkable! From the carefully watercolored sky and field to the delicate dandelions and vibrant wildflowers, every element adds depth and beauty to the scene. The addition of the wind using a white gel pen is a thoughtful touch, and the framing in red and black brings a polished finish to the artwork. Your recipient is sure to be delighted when they receive this masterpiece!

Anyone would love to receive this beauty, Anita. Lots of thought and work went into your card with all of the details and hand drawn flowers next to the fabulous dandelions!

Anita, you have an artist's eye for creating movement...your eye travels naturally from the dandelions up into the flock of birds and heads toward the windmills. This is truly a masterpiece!

oh my - just stunning ! everything is perfect.. the wind mills in the background just took me to Holland... and the birds are flocking together in a nice formation. Such soft, peaceful colors as the background too.

This was my first impression of The Netherlands when our ship came into Amsterdam . . . . rows of windmills and fields of blooming tulips instead of the wildflowers which is just as lovely with those frothy white dandelion heads!
