Happy Birthday



Been a busy week, so it's nice to get uninterrupted time at my desk to finish off some cards and post them... this is my last for the day - it takes more time than your think to just photograph, edit and then post them.
I started with the bowl on this card.... which is actually the cut out of the lolly jar card I made recently.. thought to see if I could get an ombre effect with watercolour pencils...not too bad (pic is not so good).  Then I sought out and die cut the flowers in similar shades to the pencils used and leaves and arranged them in the bowl with a touch of glitter glue, and finished off with a stamped sentiment strip.
I am playing along with CAS Mix Up June challenge - Ombre and with AAA Cards - who are celebrating their 5th Birthday - congrats ladies.
Thanks for visiting, I really appreciate it - happy card making.

  2. What a pretty ombre bowl/vase, Robyn! I love it. The shades made with your watercolor pencils are so soft and have a slight nice texture (like a real bowl). Shine from the glitter glue is a wonderful touch! So glad to see your card in the CAS Mix Up gallery.
