These cards are made out of a very heavy cardstock, almost a board feel to them, the surface seemed a little slick to me, so I don't know how watercolor would do but my Specturm Noir alcohol markers worked fine. They measure 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 inches. You can't see it in these pictures but I put a bit of glitter pen on the wings and center of the flowers. I added the die cut around it, thought it gave a garden feel to it.

We went to a lake near by and were able to take some pictures of Geese and their babies yesterday, I haven't had a chance yet to download them, hopefully I got some good pictures, if I did I will share them next time.
Hope you all have a wonderful, fun and creative weekend,
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Very pretty sympathy card. I like how well that Martha Stewart punch goes with that die. I agree that is a nice verse for a sympathy card too. TFS!
Lovely card Connie! I love your coloring technique. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for being so late with my comments, my darling Connie, I'm truly overwelmed by work during this period of the year, believe me !
Your good heart is always so heartwarming to me, sweetie !

i like these smaller ones, i have colored several and am very happy with the results. i do, however, like your coloring better and have picked up some ideas (shading)!!!
so sad this cancer thing, it is a beautiful sympathy card!!!!
Hi Connie, The card you designed will be a comfort. Such a pretty and peaceful design for a sympathy card and your creativity is beautiful. Sounds like you enjoyed a nice time at the lake. Have a great weekend. Blessings xo
So sorry to hear of his loss. BUT, this beautiful card of yours will surely bring them comfort. These are difficult to make, yet probably one of the most important cards to create. This is GORGEOUS!!!
Oh, dear Connie, I'm so sorry to learn of the loss of your SIL's mother's sister (I'm assuming his aunt). It's such an awful disease that strikes so many. This is a gorgeous card, and it will surely bring her comfort and will touch her knowing you made it just for her. Your design is beautiful, and I love this Scripture verse. Beautiful coloring for your butterflies and flowers! Looking forward to more photos of your visit to the lake! Hugs, sweet friend, and enjoy your weekend!
Oh, Connie, this is an absolutely lovely card for a very sad occasion. Such a pretty image and colored so well with your markers. I'll be looking forward to your geese photos.
Your card is beautiful and perfect for the sad occasion. I love the MS punch you have used, it makes such a dainty border. It's not one I've seen before here in the UK.
I love the blue and yellow together! Feels so warm and sunny!
