Spring IS on the Way

 

    

I have decided to enter the SPCC Challenge #35 with this card which has colours that closely resemble the ones requested.

I had loads of fun as well as some very frustrating moments using watercolour paints and a mister to create some *wash scenes* on Arches 140 lb watercolour paper.  I wanted to try it for the 1st time and have some completed ones on hand for to use as backgrounds on some cards.

A couple of Hampton Art floral rubber stamps that I purchased on etsy also arrived and I used them for this card . . . eventually deciding against stamping a sentiment on the front . . . allowing the card to be used for almost any occasion!

Pearl-adorned butterflies cut with my Martha Stewart punch give the only dimension to an otherwise one layer card and make it easy for me to easily mail it anywhere :o)
