Another challenge from the Less Is More team: this week it is stamping and watercolour. As usual, I have to ignore the beautiful creations from other people, and work on my own card. And I have actually produced one I really like!

The stamping isn't very clear or precise - I still need to work on my technique! But I am pleased with the actual idea.

 

I used watercolours to paint the background, and then a sweet little set of stamps by Artemio, in Versacraft inks. The spots that you can see are little silver stars. I think I imagine the bird to be a nightingale, serenading the stars. The sentiment is (rather obviously, I fear!) hand written.

 

It's not brilliantly executed, but I like it.
