Adventures in Watercolour

So today I had a notion to do some colouring, and not just any colouring, oh no. Watercolouring. Could this be because it hasn't stopped raining since May 2nd? Possibly.
However, having the notion is all very well, but it does help if a body owns more than 8 tombow markers. Hence the exceedingly limited colour palette on the finished example.
The image is from A Day for Daisies and as I said, she's been coloured in using tombow markers and a waterbrush, it doesn't show up on the photo but I've also added a touch of glitter to some of the flowers. A bit of green and purple Bazzill cardstock and she's good to go. Oh, and she's also teeny tiny - I used a 4" square card blank.

I would like to enter into the following challenges:
Try it on Tuesday - Here comes the sun
Fab N Funky Challenges - Summer Lovin'

A Day for Daisies - Pastel but no Pink

  1. I love this - very soft and girly. I see glitter on the flowers - question, is there glitter on the left side of her back/shoulder? Hair is fantastic - great job controlling for highlight.
    Could send to me anytime (hint, hint.)
