Hello my friends! Time for a new challenge from The Flower Challenge - and time to get your sparkle on!!
The lovely flowers where this little bird is perched was calling [or cooing?] for a bit of sparkle today! Here's a closeup so you can see that bit of stickle-sparkle in action...
I just know you will have fun with this one - can't wait to see our gallery fill up with all of your sparkle! Let's go see how my teamies brought their sparkle to the table. We have a very special guest this month - Donna Mikasa!
Thanks for stopping by!

Love the soft, pastel colors! Fantastic
ReplyDeleteLovely!! I like the amount of sparkle you added, just right!
ReplyDeleteYou've mastered the watercolor technique, Michele! The Stickles are just perfect, too. Honored to guest with TFC this month!
ReplyDeleteThere he is again, my friend. I am stalking Wplus9 for this to come back in stock! You have mastered this coloring technique and the stickles are extra fun!
ReplyDeleteGeez, Michele, this is incredible! I really need to sit down and try this technique which you've utterly mastered. Such a beautiful stamp. Just the right bit of sparkle.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a 'must try' technique Michele, your card is a work of art my friend x
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, what lovely colors you've used to surround your bluebird! Then you topped it off with the perfect amount of sparkle. Pretty card, Michele!
ReplyDeleteYou sure have perfected this water coloring technique Michele and this card is just STUNNING!!! I think I'm going to need this set when it comes back in stock too! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteYou have definitely mastered Dawn's technique and your results are gorgeous! I haven't watercolored in such a long time but having seen her video and your results make me rethink my lack of effort lol! Beautifully done on this card and the other I saw on IG! Oh and I love the touch of stickles - brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI look at 40 challenges a month for inspiration and there are so many talented designers and so much lovely inspiration but if there was a prize for DT makes, I'd give it to you for this beautiful card! Hugs, Lesley
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Michele, this is a stunner! Wow! The watercolor technique is so beautiful and the addition of the Stickles sparkle adds the perfect touch. Thanks for sharing. Hope you have a fabulous start to the new week!
ReplyDeleteYou are really killin' it with this technique, Michele. This is absolutely stunning. I love your choice of colors, that wonderful sparkle in the flower centers and that wonderful corner treatment. I am away from my craft desk this week, but I am so going to try this when I get home.
ReplyDeleteI love birds, so of course I love this! What a gorgeous way to color in this stamp...so very pretty! I would expect nothing less!
ReplyDeleteAnother really stunning card, Michele! Beautiful watercoloring and I love how you added sparkle in all the right places ~ xx
ReplyDeleteI LOve this card, Michele!. The softly and loosely watercolored image fits the square panel perfectly, and the postage-stamp-shaped photo corners ;-) are interesting and unique! The spatters and the sparky stickles are wonderful finishing touches too.
