I wanted to paint a bit today and was thrilled by the Watercolor challenge this week. I had to give it a go... My neighbor got bad news about the health of her 27 year old daughter today and I decided to use this card to send her well wishes.
I took a ruler along the edge, and added Wink of Stella along the edges and in the centers of the flowers, for a subtle touch of sparkle.
Thanks for a great challenge!

Shelly, this is beautiful. You watercolored the blooms, branches, and leaves perfectly. Your neighbor is sure to love the thoughts behind this, also. What a sad story. So glad you could join us this week for the challenge.

I can't wait until I get time to try this! Yours is so pretty and will surely help your friend feel some love. The shimmer is a great idea and I love your splatters. Pretty, pretty, pretty! Hugz

This is gorgeous! Such a beautiful sprig of blossoms! The pink is a lovely shade and you did a great job with the veins in the petals! I am so very sorry to hear that about your friend's daughter. So sad and so scary. My husband has had to go to a specialist on a regular basis because of a spot on his eye, so far it is not growing.
