Playing with Peerless Watercolors for Virginia's View Challenge #13.
Donna Mikasa sent me some samples of her Peerless to play with and after much hesitation (I think I honestly thought I was going to break them--LOL) I dipped in with a wet paintbrush and was amazed by the vibrant and gorgeous colours. Especially that hot pink! So I did a little emboss resist using the Floral Butterfly stamp from Serendipity Stamps.
This is my Day 8 colouring for Kathy Racoosin`s 30 Day Color Challenge.
I am trying to sketch out of my comfort zone and get a bit messy with colour.

I am also submitting this to the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Things That Fly!
I am also adding this card to the Time Out Challenges #26: 1st Birthday.
I want to also say hello to two really creative designers and my newest followers. Please visit their blogs, you won't be disappointed!

I feel like you're channelling your inner Donna Mikasa here - she uses these colours a lot and they look beautiful here - bold and bright! I hope you'll bring these to our playdate (I guess you will, since you're hosting! lol!)

Simple yet elegant I like it!
Love how bright and cheery this card is. I always think of water colors as being more muted, and it is wonderful to see them so vibrant.

It is a beautiful life, including all those "bumps" we face, isn't it?! And speaking of beautiful...this is one beautiful card. LOVE your watercoloring and that subtly embossed butterfly. Great font on the sentiment too. This is just stunning. Have a great weekend. Bev

Tracey...this is just so beautiful. Love your water coloring paired with your stunning butterfly.
Such luscious, vibrant colours, Tracey ... and very beautiful! Anita :)
Oops, Tracey ... popped back to say how delighted I am you're playing along with us at Time Out! Anita :)
Of course, you know I'm swooning over the butterfly, but a butterfly paired with these vibrant colours - and created by you...oh my! Breath-taken-away gorgeous! Way to go on the challenge! I didn't know about it until a couple days ago; perhaps I'll focus on adding colours to upcoming challenges (actually, I'm all stenciling-obsessed). Colouring = wonderful therapy!
