Hello, thank you for all your sweet comments! I have not been feeling so great – my kids and i have since beginning of December a cough, which turns out to be Bronchitis. I have enjoyed the past days – staying longer in bed and hop to your blogs! Must say i have missed that!
So, now i am thinking what i can tell you about my card :-) First off.. it is water colored. Yes, right :-) this card was a order from one of my readers and she asked me if i would water color again. Lucky me, she really likes the card and I will post the card on Saturday to Germany. Thank you :-)
I think the last time i pulled my box out with the ink bottles was in early August. I just do not feel secure with this element.
What i like about this card is the paper with the image – it was picked by my husband :-) I wished i could color such nice flowers to the ground, so it would look even more like Tilda and Edwin are dancing for joy in a flower field. Well.. i have tried with patterned paper :-)
The card is for Cute Card Thursdays Challenge this week – were we would love to see your “thank you” cards. I bet Santa was good to all of you – and you are going to need a bunch :-)
Stamps: Tilda & Edwin dancing through Sir Stampalot while you are over at Sir Stampalot… don’t forget to check out the store’s first SUPER STAMP SALE
Sentiment: Stampin up
Papers: 6x6 Basic Grey “Green At Heart” one of those pads i did not like at first and now i can use them all the time :-)

Dies: Quickutz
