Garden Wishes

Hi there.  I'm glad you stopped by!


I colored this beautiful digital image with Arteza Twimarkers and water.
Since I'd printed it pretty large, I cut it in half.  Then I cut it in half again.
The other two pieces will be used later.

Challenges:

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Beautiful window in the wall, Bonnie! Just love the flowers in the panes!!

Pat said...

Such prettily coloured flowers Bonnie, and I love the way you have cut the image into two and then cut it again to give a split image which gives the impression of a window against the brick wall, a great idea! I love the black twine and white on black sentiment banner too. x

The coloring is beautiful but the design is awesome! What a great idea and a stunning card.

Oh, wow, I love what you did with this digi! You colored it beautifully to begin with and then had a brilliant idea to cut it into four pieces! I love it on the brick, too. Fabulous!

Beautiful colouring of your digital image Bonnie. How were the Arteza twin markers. When we get to travel again my PO box in Point Roberts (Washington) will be hopping with new purchases:)

Beautiful window 'scene' Bonnie - a wonderful textural result with the brick wall for the window to be anchored in.
Stay safe

Beautiful card. That is a neat trick to cut it down and then in half again. It looks great on the embossed background.

Just when I thought it was not possible for your coloring and painting to get any better THIS card happened. My gosh, Bonnie! You've really mastered that skill. This is gorgeous and I love that you cut the panel. Many of those stamps are so big so thanks for this idea!

Julie Koerber said...

Oh my gosh Bonnie, how delightful is this creation? I love the bold colors (beautifully colored flowers!) on that stark white backdrop. So pretty!!!

Loll said...

Gorgeous colouring of your image Bonnie. LOVE the bright and vibrant flowers in your garden. Love the layout and design with the split panel, which is split again. Looking forward to see what you do with the other half. xx

TK said...

Gorgeous! Lovely flowers, and they seem to be peeking perfectly through your window!

Such a beautiful card Bonnie I had to come by for a better look. I love that you can tell it's watercolored but not overdone with water as the images are still crisp. I am thrilled to see this gorgeous card in our gallery at Seize the Birthday!

Brenda said...

OMGosh Bonnie, I'm in love with this card! It's like looking outside of a window to the beautiful blooms. So pretty. The brick embossing folder is fabulous and makes this scene even prettier. Can't wait to see what you make with the other half! Hugs, Brenda

Vicky Hayes said...

Definitely a showstopper Bonnie! The bright image really focuses the eye inwards but there's so much detail in your white space too - love it to bits! Vicky x

The embossed brick wall brings out the bright colors beautifully. Can't wait to see the other half! :-)

Congratulations on winning Seize the Birthday with this card, Bonnie! Somehow I missed commenting on it so am glad I spotted it on the Seize the Birthday winners' post. Love the colours - the rich red and blue of the flowers is a fabulous combination and your watercolour wash background is perfect. Great layout with the split panel and the embossed background.

Mac Mable said...

What an inspiring window of the garden. Your colouring is remarkable. The white brick background is the perfect compliment.
