Welcome to our first challenge of 2025 with Inspiration Station. How wonderful is this image ? I received some wonderful new watercolours by Winsor and Newton for Christmas and just really wanted to try and reproduce the image using them.
I used watercolour paper for my background and mixed a few of the colours to get what I wanted. I wanted to try a Bokeh technique and used white paint to create the background. The foliage stamps are by Alison Bomber and the bird is a very old one from Kaisercraft.
I look forward to seeing how you are inspired by our image.
I'm adding this into the following challenges:
Let's Create - Sentiment
Stamping Sensations - Hand Coloured
Pink Gem - AG
We Love2Create- AG
Word Art Wednesday - AG
