Happy Birthday – You are…. (HLS Watercolour)

I was thrilled to have my card selected as Winner over at Uniko Studio – Celebrating 9 years Challenge! How exciting!! Thanks so much, Bev!!

My card was also selected for an Honorable Mention over at Pammie’s Inky Pinky Challenge. Thanks so much to everyone for selecting my card!!

Hello and welcome

Today I’m back with HLS Watercolour Challenge for March, 2021. This year it’s Anything Goes so long as it features watercolour. So easy to join in!

This card came together so well, I was amazed.

Using Uniko – ‘You Are, Yes You Are’ stamp set, the flowers and leaves were stamped randomly over a slimline panel.

These were loosely watercoloured using Distress Inks.

Words from the set were again stamped randomly using Brilliance Lightning Black ink.

Pink, green, white and gold was splattered across the panel.

It was then added to the card front, along with a piece cut using MFT Stitch Triple Peek-a-Boo Window & Edge die cut.

The larger sentiment comes from an old set which might be from PB, but not sure and the ‘You Are’ from the stamp set. Both stamped in the Brilliance ink.

Please head over to our blog and check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team!  I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month.

I look forward to seeing what you create!  Good luck!

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  I love to read your comments.

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
