I worked up a few cards with another waiting in the “wings” to watercolor. Watch my Instagram posts to see more in the next few days. Sometimes I have giveaways on my Instagram account so be sure to give me a follow!
This card was a piece of cake! The squirrel image is adorable and so fun to watercolor! Made for a quick and easy card. I heat embossed the sentiment and used fun foam to add dimension before adding my watercolor paper to the card stock.

Couldn’t resist letting the cute little critter shake some LOVE out of the bag from the Secret Ingredient set. The cupcake and the little critter are from the Sweetest by Far set. A little masking helped position my chefs hat just where I wanted it! I love paper piecing (paper appliqué) and used some Lawn Fawn papers for the Chef’s hat and the bag. Sentiments include “Flour” and “Sugar” along with “LOVE.” The heart embossing folder made a perfect background.

I love the sentiments with the cupcake image, especially this quote by Anne Byrn. I had a little bit of a Patriotic theme going here and used Fossilized Amber Distress Spritz for some glitz. When you need some GLITZ grab the SPRITZ! Coloring on my card was with Copic Markers and enhanced colored pencil. My cupcake wrapper is from my stash of Doodle Bug 6×6 pad
