Do you find that there are some stamp sets that when you get them you realize just how much you enjoy them? The country home stamp set was that way for me. I thought it was adorable in the catalog and so I ordered it, come to my surprise I now can't stop using it. I love the greetings, the fonts and the images. They are great watercolored, colored with pencils as well as stampin blends and just stamped with no color at all. My favorite card that I made with set is the one below.
I just can't get enough of this cute milk jug! I looked online for the colors for milk jugs and I saw so many different colors that I thought why not watercolor them all different. I love the rustic feel that this portrays. The greeting fits so well on the top and my card was finished in no time. I have been working on my watercoloring. It is not as easy as it looks. There are so many amazing watercoloring artists online, I could watch them all day.
I have also included a close up of the milk jug. My watercoloring is a work in progress, but I do like the way that this turned out. I used the ink refills with the aquapainter for this. Using the neutral colors and then added some splatter to add to the rustic look. I am so glad that this stamp set was carried over from the holiday catalog. I really hope you enjoy this card!
