Birthday and Get Well Cards...CAS...Watercolor and Colored Pencil

 

 

 


 

 

These clean and simple cards were created using Stampin' Up images, Crayola watercolor, and Crayola colored pencils.  I still have a lot to learn about water coloring and coloring in general, but it's a lot of fun and very relaxing. I prefer coloring small images rather than the larger coloring books.

Happy Easter! CAS Clean and Simple Cards

Wishing everyone a very Happy Easter!


Here are four clean and simple Easter cards. 

The bird is Tim Holtz, and the bunny ears are Stampin' Up.  The large five  bunny image is from Penny Black 2002, "bunny friends" number 1927K. The sentiments are from Sarasota stamps, and the image on the envelope is from Stampin' Up. These are all very old rubber stamps and may be retired. I'm practicing my coloring with colored pencils and still working on water coloring.

This flower is from an Inkadinkadoo acrylic set, was watercolored, and the sentiment is from an old Stampin' Up set. I like to add a bow made of craft thread to all of my cards.
