Summer time birthday

My Niece is always showing pics of the kids on facebook and with their cousins and when I saw this stamp, it reminded me of them so I used it for my great nieces card, she is turning 5.

I tried watercoloring with my distress markers on cold press 140 pound watercolor paper I picked up at Walmart the other day.



I added stickles to the jar of fireflies.

Hot off the press -- Janies Girlfiiends stamp set-- watercoloring with distress inks, used a gray marker on the fence and lid of the jar
Spellbinders -- Standard circle lg., Big scalloped circle lg, A2 curved borders one dies
Carta Bella -- Alphabet Junction
Stamps of Life -- Minis 4 circles
Making memories -- Buttons and sewn to paper
Stickles-- Yellow

Off to get errands done before VBS tonight.
Hope you all are enjoying a good week,
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and letting me know what you think of my card,

Connie

Connie, your watercoloring turned out great! Very watercolory-looking and I love that. Darling stamp and card design with the perfect papers. Love the curve to suggest water. Very creative and cute all over!
