My college roommate lives in NYC and celebrates a birthday this month. If I really could put a big candle on top of her building I would......but this card will have to do! I watercolored with shades of blue, violet and a touch of pink to create my daybreak background. Then I stamped the skyline from Calling All Heroes. Watercoloring is not my strong suit but someone I know loves it!
Jaydee's challenge this week is to do some watercoloring on a CAS card......have fun with the Paper Players!
I was also inspired by the sketch at Cas(e) this Sketch.
Linda yours was the first card I went to this morning as I was attracted to that skyline and wanted to see who makes the stamp set. Love what you did with it, and I spotted the sketch right away too! Just perfect use of it!
ReplyDeleteWow! Your watercolouriing is just amazing and absolutely perfect! I love the scene you've created Linda!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever card for your NY friend. Watercoloring is perfect. And I love your little watercolorer (is that a word!). Your blog is always so interesting and your cards each day outstanding. Thanks for sharing.r
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome Linda! An you said that you couldn't watercolor...this is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colors, Linda--just like daybreak. Show me somebody who says you can't watercolor and I'll show them this card. It's fabulous! Love Emma's intense concentration too...
ReplyDeleteYour watercoloring is amazing, love the skyline and the candle on top is so perfect.
ReplyDeleteI am envious of your watercoloring. You've captured the morning daybreak perfectly! I think all of our watercoloring troubles are because we didn't learn early enough so Miss Emma definitely has the right idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is just beautiful, Linda! Your watercolored background for the skyline scene is perfect!!
ReplyDeleteLove the city scene! Your daybreak background is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI really like to see city scenes. You have a great city scene with sky. Awesome! It gave me the inspiration to create my own version as an entry to PP304.
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty night sky, Linda. Love that stamp with the candle on top of the building.
