Today is our oldest daughter's birthday.
Here's the card I made especially for her.
She is such a beautiful person
and brings beauty into our lives.
I stamped the butterfly with Brushed Corduroy distress ink
on watercolor paper and painted with my
Koi paints.
I added some splatter for a little extra interest.
This card is an A7 size (5" x 7")
ANYTHING GOES
It's hard to believe that tomorrow is the 1st day of December.
This year has flown by.
Thanks for the visit.
Enjoy!

Hello Bonnie
ReplyDeleteA beautiful, serene card. I like your choice of vibrant orange for the butterfly and the splattered background brings it all together.
Truly a beautiful sentiment.

Gorgeous card for a very special person! Love the soft watercolours of your butterfly ... using the distress inks is like no line watercolouring, right?? Haven't tried that yet, but it's on my to do list. Gorgeous colours and the splatters add lots of movement to this beautiful card. Thanks for joining us at ATCAS, my friend. Loll xx
