I discovered a wonderful colouring book from Kirsty Rice called Summer Cutting Garden. (I think there are/will be the other seasons too.) It's on good thick paper, single sided and beautifully illustrated. I had a play with my Daniel Smith watercolours with no aim in mind. When the painting was finished (why didn't a take a photo?!) I thought I could turn it into a layout, so I started fussy cutting...
After quite some time with my scissors and then a craft knife for the inner areas my wreath was ready.
After adding a little watercolour to the background I popped the wreath up on foam pads for dimension.
I added loads of sequins - I kept wondering if it was too many but I couldn't stop!!
I added a few strips of journalling over one of the flowers.
Highly recommend this book if you like playing with watercolours!
Thanks for stopping by.
