Watercolour Feathers card

Good afternoon friends, just popping by to
share my 'Less is More' challenge card.
It's a colour theme this time and....
 
 
Blue & Brown
 
 
I was stumped at first by this colour
combo and really couldn't think what 
to make. Then I just 'went for it' and
came up with this idea.


More watercolouring, a bit of die
 cutting, I added a quick sentiment,
also watercolouring that too and
job done!



Phew it's been a busy few days here, first
our usual big Summer party for our 3 family
 birthdays. Then it was my birthday yesterday,
spent mostly recovering from  the party still.
 
 
 
We did spend some time at the beach and 
had ice cream though, such a lovely day ;)
Today we were babysitting, then more
 babysitting tomorrow and Saturday!



Time certainly passes quickly these days.
Anyway I just managed to fit in a card
 and post it in between ;) I got my MISTI
from the children and also cash and all
these beautiful flowers too. Such a
lucky girl ;)



Anyway come and have a quick peek at my
 card and enjoy your week whatever you
 have planned ;)
 
 
ps. also pics of my lovely flowers and one
I took today of our beautiful granddaughter
Amelia...awww ;)

    Yay, you got your MISTI! Enjoy! The birthday flowers are beautiful. Belated birthday wishes to you! Your card is absolutely stunning. The feather and ombre sentiment work so well with the soft watercolouring. Thanks for a fantastic LIM entry :) x

    Fantastic! You 'went for it' - Love it! that is when some real magic happens and it sure happened for you Viv! What a glorious card. Really envious of your way with colour. You were a lucky girl with all those flowers - and a Misti too - hope you enjoy that. Belated Happy Birthday from me. Hope your head wasn't too sore. Thank you so much for joining us at Less is More.

    Much too late...due to our holls... but coming from a good heart: Congratulations on your birthday!!
    And a beautiful card! I love that colourcombo, so I was a bit disappointed that it was during our holls and I decided not to take any ink with me...
    Hugs, Gerrina
