Korimou is the featured stamper this week, chosen by Nancy. Her gallery is lovely as Nancy says. I chose this: Watercolour Potting Bench by Korimou at Splitcoaststampers as I had found this wooden stamp for $5.00 at a thrift store recently. I unmounted it and inked it up with 2 colors of brown. Then used a waterbrush to apply the colors. Haven't done much watercoloring but I am happy enough with this. Changes were different image and colors, plain panel instead of embossed. This will go to a friend who is just home from the hospital.

What a super wreath this is Shirl. Your colouring is lovely and very reminiscent of the FS's. What a great find at the thrift store! ...and yes the cardinal was from Michael's way back when they carried other things than just their own brand.

Shirl, this is such a fun wreath with the birds, birdhouses, gardening tools, etc. Your friend will love this beautifully water-colored 'welcome home from the hospital' card!

Gorgeous! The stamp was a fantastic find. The watercolors/shading is spot on. The blue framing is the perfect color to match those sweet birds...
