Butterfly, Feather and Flowers in Watercolor

Today I am sharing a watercolor card with a mix of stamping and watercolor pencils.
It is going to my sweet Mother-In-Law.  She loves butterflies.


Sentiment:  Sending you love & joy.




This one I will use for Valentine's Day but it could be for any occasion, really.
The butterfly is popped up.  For added sparkle, the hearts were glossed and sequins were added.

Peony Flowers With Love

Here is my card with beautiful peony flowers for tonight.
It will be a Valentine for my Mama.


Sentiment:  With love.

This sparkles more than the photo shows, on the sentiment and the flower edges.
I tried creating a variegated look to the flowers in red, pink and yellow.
There is a mixture of stamping and Copic coloring here.

The background is watercolor and framed with glitter paper.
The heart is made of puzzle pieces and the flowers were heat embossed in gold, as was the sentiment.
