watercolour pocket letter

Here's the second pocket letter that I made for a swap. I've used various stamps on watercolour paper, coloured with water cooler pencils.

I had a lot of fun creating this for a new friend :-)

This is how I wrapped it up.

a 100th Birthday Card

I was happy to be asked to make a card for a lady turning 100! I haven't made one before- a pretty cool thing to be asked to do.

I knew straight away I wanted to make a pretty card, using soft colours.

I've stamped the image, and then watercolored using pencils, I've also added some watercoloring to the background, and stamped some scripted french text, to add a bit of detailing.

Also a bow and a clingy 100 ;-)

I love how its turned out- hopefully so will the recipient.

I'm entering the card into the following challenges:
