March Theme - Spring

Ha!
I have these cards already completed!

I covered three cards with book pages and left to dry.

 

I water coloured this and, again, left to dry.

Now that the paper and card was thoroughly dry I drew my designs onto the card and painted the flowers in the bright cheerful colours.

I loved making these cards and will try to make some more again.

I received these by return:

Thank you Jan S.

Thank you JudithAnn.

Thank you Philippa.

Paint Chip Swap

I eventually managed to get some Paint Chip Samples from my local DIY  Shop, several in fact but then had the big decision of trying to choose just four!

Weekend at the Lake

I watercoloured this digital.
I cut a frame out of the paint sample, slightly to one side so that the title was showing.  I left a border at top and bottom of the picture.

Bunches of Blooms

I covered an ATC blank with dictionary paper and then attached the title to the top edge of the card.  I punched some daisies out of the remaining paint chip.  After attaching the daisies, I slipped a few punched leaves under the flowers and added a burgundy frame to the lower edge.

Mind Your Beeswax

I printed out this Lacy Sunshine design for my next ATC and coloured her with pencils.  
I decorated the left side of the card with a honeycomb design and added the title.  

Merry-Go-Round

I used a Dover image for my last card, colouring it with my gelpens, gold for the horse itself.  I diecut the paint sample and used both the negative and positive to show off the title.

I received the following cards:

Inland Shores

Sunflower
