Hi all, it's time for a new challenge over at Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog! The theme this fortnight is to use Watercolouring on your creation.
I have used some watercolour pencils on this lovely image of these Quail and chose to go for an autumnal colour scheme.
After colouring I went over the image gently with a wet paintbrush to create this slightly more watercolour colour effect. The sentiment is also from the S.S. shop 'Live each Season..'
I then cut out using a Stampin' Up! die. and layered onto some Rich Razzleberry card. I used some new papers from My Mind's Eye, and layered some plum pleated ribbon, lace and twine topped with a flower.
