Of course, I water colored it, added the computer generated sentiment and some dew drops and, it’s a card. It wasn’t as easy as I make it sound. It takes quite a lot of time to water color one of these scenes, but I love doing it.
When I was younger, I took a couple of water color classes and gave some paintings away and kept a couple but once the classes were over, I would try to paint but they just didn’t come out very good. I’ve decided now that my whole problem is that I just can’t draw! I think I’m doing a pretty good job with the water coloring part but if I had to draw this scene and then paint it, it would look like a storm passed through with trees leaning every which way and the cabin falling down!
In the last few months, I have purchased a number of stamps (digital and rubber) that will work very well with water coloring. I haven’t gotten a chance to use some of them yet. I’m going to get the DT cards ready for this week and then I can color some of the stamps I haven’t had a chance to use yet. Once my niece gets married (Aug 8). I’ll have so much more time on my hands. Actually, I don’t think I have much else to do for the wedding until a few days before. I need to make some big bows, but that’s it. I’m sure other things will come up though so I’ll be ready to help out whenever I can.
Well, that’s enough of my rambling. I’m going to go make my Chirper card. I have to wait until daytime to make my Bee Crafty Card because I will need to take some photos while I’m making it (hint-hint).
Blessings,
Christine
