Quick thank you


I needed a quick thank you card for my aunt. She's just the sweetest and was kind enough to listen when I really needed someone to do just that.

It’s been so cold here the past couple of days I haven’t wanted to leave the sofa or warm fuzzy blanket, so I colored some images last night, and this is one of them.

I’ve been working on water coloring with markers, which I have not had a lot of success with. This is one of the images that was not thrown in the trash last night. Others were not nearly as lucky. I usually color with my water color crayons, pencils or Bic Markers, but really want to master this new (to me) technique.

I have been hoarding my SU Hodgepodge Hardware since it’s retired for about the past 6 months, but this card just really needed something extra, so I broke out the HPH, and the world did not come crashing down around me . .. but it is about 5 below with the wind chill here, so I’m wonderin’ if the two are related . . . . .

Happy Stampin'!

The coloring on this is wonderful. I like the tan and brown together with this image. And that lable nesties frames this perfectly. I'm sure your Aunt will love this.
