Flamingo card

Good morning friends, it's a lovely warm and sunny day here today. I hope you all have it too.     Late with my Saturday 'Less is More' card as our son asked us to join them for a nice pub lunch and walk yesterday.Their  baby is  due any minute of course.      My DIL looks  amazing too. I suggested  names which they liked, no decision yet  though ;) Next Friday is the day she will arrive , unless it happens naturally before  then. She is breech atm. too still.       Such a  lovely day, anyway I have made my  card at  last! It's a colour challenge this  week and....     SUNSET     Of course sunset said pink to me lol. Well it would of course and everyone who knows  me won't be at all suprised !       I went for an Ombre look, pale shades of the  setting sun....well that's what it said to me anyway.        I wanted a watercolour look to my flamingo and tried my new Zig Clean color real brush pens. (HAD to get those when I saw them whilst blog hopping).....yes I know not easy on  the purse this blog hopping is it!!!       After much effort ( several coloured images) and  trying various mediums I  relented and had to use  my trusty Copic pens. The printed image didn't  like watercolour of  course.        Loving the new pens though so you will be seeing  more of them very soon. Sooo hard to open though,  my poor nails haven't  recovered yet...and I have  only opened 3 so far!!     Enough waffling from me again,come and have a  closer look ;) here is my card....
