What started as a simple stamped design changed quickly with a bit too much water from my Aquabrush... another chance to accentuate the negative!
Our weather has gone from 'warm for Winter' to full-on Winter, once again ... so happy for this short month!
I'm also cheered by your visit today ... will we be visiting you in our CTS gallery? I sure hope so!

Oooh, I'm loving your take on the sketch, Michele! Your blooms are so pretty and they look amazing in pink! Beautiful watercolor wash on your textured background and perfect sentiment!
Oh, I like the watery artsy look of this one! Very pretty Michele. I sure hope your wintery weather doesn't head in my direction. We got more of the white stuff yesterday morning. How many days till spring!!??
Hello, lovely friend! My return from my working visit at my mom's was apparently more 'depleting' than I realized, as I've been 200% sidelined by a nasty bout of flu/stomach flu, that started Monday morning and continues to persist Zero energy, wobbly, nauseated, pretty much bed-ridden...yep, I'm a MESS! I thought flu symptoms were supposed to be sniffles/cough (which I don't have), so this upset stomach stuff has me stressed. Big stressed. Anyway: just know that I adore alllll your cards of late; they've brightened my 'grey' days immensely! (oh...and we're having a winter storm here, too...)
Hugs~c
Subtle, soft, dreamy ... and so delicious, Michele ... simply lovely! Hugs, Anita :)
Michele the aquabrush incident ended up a beautiful card for the challenge! xo
Wow, you clever girl you! I love how you took this sketch and came up with this card!! I love it. I would have never thought to use the flowers in place of the candles on the sketch. Nice job my friend! Hugs, Brenda
Oh Michele, my dear, you always inpspire me and this card is truly inspirational! I would have been digging for the birthday candles too, because I'm such a literal thinker. I love how you always seem to think outside the borders. Perfectly delightful my friend!
Who needs candles when you have flowers, this is so beautiful Michele!
Wonderful take on the sketch--you're officially my watercoloring guru!
Fabulous take on the inspiration sketch! Love the pretty watercolored blooms!
Beautiful!
Loving the artsy look, Michele. I need to use those flowers more.
Fabulous take on the sketch, Michele! I love your pretty coloring of the flowers and the artsy shadow background! Drawing the stems for the flowers is a great idea. I even checked the stamp set just now to see if it had a stem stamp or not. ;-P Hideko
Oh wow, this is wonderful, Michele. Terrific take on the sketch. Love that you used the flowers and how you created that background. Love the sentiment, too. All around beautiful!
This is AMAZING!! I love your pretty watercolor background. That sentiment is wonderful too!! GREAT design!
Great take on the sketch, Michele! The loose watercoloring looks fabulous!
I love that smokey look about your stems. Fabulous card hon.
Gorgeous card, Michele! The texture behind these flowers is beautiful!
That's the reason I don't use the waterbrushes that often. Dripping happened to me many times. You saved this brilliantly with the loose wash on the background! Love the pretty rose color!!!
