One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

PPP WatercolorBlog Hop and the 30 day Coloring Challenge

I water colored this Altnew Stamp: Persian Motifs with the Zig Clear Real brush pens.
The sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh the clear both 4mm and 6mm I bought the 6mm ones when I was in Seattle visiting my BFF...we went to Impress and I loaded up on some fun colors from PPP, I do think my favorites are the clear though!
Since I am not an artist, I find it easier for me to use one color and draw it out to get the shading.  So that is what I did here with these flowers and leaves.  
The sentiment is a die from SSS.
I am joining in the fun over at Pretty Pink Posh with the Watercolor Blog Hop and also entering this in the 30 day Coloring Challenge.

How funny. I just came from Aileen's blog and told her I was skipping around the cards and saw that you both used the same flower. I didn't have to go far. Lovely card. Sorry that it has to be used but I think it will bring some pleasure to the one that receives it. It truly is beautiful.
