Birthday Wishes

 

We have just returned from a wonderful few days R&R in our caravan in a fabulous nearby National Park -  it's was truly  magical, quiet, serene and sooooo relaxing....fortunately for us we are still able to travel around our state with basic pandemic restrictions.... very few others at the park.
Today I am posting a square card for a change...  the stamped floral image is from my stash and I used a light watercolour wash of Distress Inks as the base for added pencil colouring.  For some interest I stamped the sentiment and gold embossed it and a card section I die cut with a notched border and used orange card as a thin border frame onto a butter yellow card.
I am playing along with Watercooler Wednesday WWC283 -  Tristan's challenge - Anything Goes with a Feminine Twist   ....    AND    ....   Seize the Birthday #196 - Tic Tac Toe ---  one image, flowers and largish sentient.
Thanks for stopping by my blog  ---   have a Happy Day and stay safe

    Love your beautiful yellow flowers Robyn. You did a great job coloring them. The added interest with the border die looks great as does the gold sentiment. Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.

    What a beautiful card, Robyn! The delicate colouring on the flower is so skillful and the subtle background inking really sets it off.
    I'm so glad you got to spend a few days in beautiful surroundings.
    Hugs

    So nice that you got away for a few days of camping, Robyn!! The park looks lovely!

    Your card is gorgeous. The flowers are so pretty with the light watercolour wash and detailed pencil work. Your colouring is so amazing. I love this design with the stitch curved border. xx
