Freshly Made Sketches #429

Hi! This is my second post for today, you can tell that I have a lot of time on my hands. I really should be cleaning my house, however that will still be there tomorrow. I made a card for the Freshly Made Sketches blog and wanted to share it with you.  Check out the creative ideas from the designers. I had made the plaid paper with my aquapainter and my ink refills after watching a post from Lime Doodle Designs. Debby  has beautiful cards and I love her water coloring. Also her videos are so good, her voice is so calming!  Check her out here. When I saw this sketch I wanted to use the plaid paper and so I stamped the to a wild rose outline stamp on water color paper and used the same ink refills to paint the rose.

I used pool party card stock and pool party, pear pizzazz and balmy blue ink refills. After water coloring I used my water color pencils to give a little more color in the shaded areas. The weather has been very cloudy in Southern California lately and so my picture is not as true to color as I would like.  

I finished with a few white dots and lines on the plaid with my chalk pen. Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you are all continuing to stay healthy and getting a lot done around your house. Have a blessed Holy Week and I hope you can stop by again soon. Stay tuned to what I did with the other side of the plaid paper.
