Time Lapse - Little Teddy

This card was for my nephew's christening. Really didn't know what to draw/paint for a christening card, so played it safe with a little teddy bear :)

Time lapse - Owl Birthday Card

Another timelapse, this time I'm drawing and painting an owl on a card for my friends birthday.

Unfortunately, I did this in the afternoon and did not have a light on, it gets dark so quickly at this time of year!

Cupcakes - Watercolour time lapse

Didn't think I'd be posting a timelapse again so soon. But they're fun to make and a record of the process of making/drawing/painting something.

Still plodding along with watercolours. I figure the more I do, the more practice I'll get and that's the only way to learn.

Doodling

I've been adding some more to my scrap book journal recently. Just trying to get to grips with watercolours and drawing straight to pen and trying not to worry about the outcome.

I quite liked the cake doodle and thought it would be a cool card design so I tried to redraw it for my Mums' birthday.

Not as good as the original and annoyingly the pen bled on the card a bit but it was fun to paint it with watercolours.

Plus, Mum liked it :)

Birthday Card

Sometimes I find it difficult to locate birthday cards that I like. And I sometimes feel that given my creative nature, I should make the majority of them.

Today is a very close friend's birthday and I felt it would be too much to by a present but thought I should put some effort into making a card.

Inside:

It's not much but I don't like anything too fussy and hopefully he'll like it! I'm quite pleased with it, I like the simplicity and the way the watercolours sit. This has made me consider drawing more freehand in pen and colouring in watercolour...
