Stacy gave us a wonderful site with amazing amount of inspiration. I will make more using this site. Today, needed to make a birthday card for my GD who is turning 18. She is an animal lover, with the elephant being one of her favorites. When seeing this balloon knew what to put on her card. Took a digi from the internet, printed it on copy paper and using a light box, traced it onto the watercolor paper. Painted with the wet on wet technique.

Fantastic! The coloring/shading on the elephant are so realistic. You created a beautiful BG scene. The spattering adds a wonderful finishing touch.

Linda, this is some amazing watercoloring! Wow. Great look and great card. That elephant on the balloon looks real doesn't it? I am so impressed by this, but then your cards are always a thrill. Hugz
