Hello!
Using my favorite Hello Bluebird raccoon for this
Thinking-of-you card! This adorable little guy is from the
"Fly a kite" stamp set, the little bird and the flowers are from
the "Banner buddies" set, also from Hello Bluebird.

The background is a rough around the edges watercolor circle!
I was inspired by Lisa´s super cute penguin card and
this was the perfect card to give it a try!

I cut out a circle from a piece of scrap paper as a mask,
then applying water with a brush to my watercolor paper,
starting with the "ground", going a little outside the "lines"
to get that rough, uneven look! I used Liquid watercolor from
Avery Elle, color Celery, for the grass and Aquamarine
for the sky and just dripped a few drops into
the wet area. I love how the color just spreads and stays
where the paper is wet! Still a newbie to the world of
watercolors and still fascinated by these small things!
After letting it dry for a few minutes I once
again placed my circle mask over my panel
continuing with the blue sky part of my circle.

The images were colored with Copic markers, the sentiment
stamp is from the "Fancy sayings" set by Clearly Besotted!

I also added a few grains of Nuvo Shimmer
Powder, color Blue Blitz to the sky, for some
shimmer, but it is hard to see in the photo.
Thanks for stopping by today!
