***********************************************

Now on to my creations for this week!  Today I have 2 cards to show you, one of a mountain scene and the other of a covered bridge.  First, here is the mountain scene...

(Click on the photo for a better view)

The mountain image was stamped on watercolor paper and colored with Tombow Markers.  Please be kind, my feeble attempt to color with markers...I think I'll stick with my pencils! 

The second, is a covered bridge scene...

 

(Click on image for a better view)

This time I did my normal Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits.  This scene reminds me of a beautiful covered bridge in the White Mountains of New Hampshire that I remember from my younger days!

For both cards I used the Vintage Floret Frame to frame the image.  Note, I didn't fussy cut this, it has a matching die to cut it!  It comes out beautiful whether you color it or not!

For more inspiration, please visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see what all the talented designers have come up with this week for you! 

Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings!
