Lori's card is so cute and I love penguins. I stayed with two penguins but instead of stamping, I painted mine and I changed them to a parent and baby. I added some patterned dsp as another nod to Lori's card, but I only used one type of paper, changed the color to blue, and left off a sentiment.
I am still deciding what 'I love you' sentiment I am going to use. I plan to send this to one of my daughters for Valentine's Day.
I watched this video for help with this painting:

There is something so sweet about this scene and you have watercoloured it so beautifully, Nancy! You have really found your niche in painting. It's always a delight to see your creations. Your daughter will be thrilled!
