You had me at hello, again!

Hello again everyone! Do you remember that I said I would be back with some this week with another way to use "berry bird"? No, well you might want to check out this posting for the start of this bird extravaganza! 

I have really been enjoying playing with stamping's latest trend- watercolors.Today, I experimented with what is being called no line watercolor. Check out this great video for a how to.

While I have every sort of watercolors from tube to the Peerless paper watercolors, my favorite set is the one I have had since I was a kid!

I think you can tell which is the well loved and much used set!! This is a pretty fool proof way to get that cool water color look to your stamping and makes for a great CAS card with the bird being the focus.

I hope some of you try this technique and let me know how you make out.

Fabulous "hello" card! Love the watercolored bird. Looks like you drew it yourself. Great card!

I am curious which watercolor brand have you use since you were a kid?

Super cette carte! Bises

Carmen, The brand is Artista by Binney and Smith. The set has got to be at least 40 odd years old!!

Hi Sue - great card - so cute, that little bird!

Sue,
Great card, love your little bird...no little ant for the photo op? Boy does your little paint box remind me of my childhood...can't believe you still have it. You've done a great job.

oh my that is just the sweetest, you did a wonderful job with this technique!

Such a cute bird and lovely card, great colouring, I really love it!! And thank for for the link on the video too, much appreciated! :) Coco x

Awesome watercolor card and the no line technique does make it look like you painted yourself and not from a stamp
