We’re about mid-month in the World Watercolor Month celebration….are you having fun? Hope you’re following along with my daily posts on Instagram and Facebook – and joining in with the prompts yourself too!
Birds of a Feather
Every once in a while…I make an autobiographical card: this is me arriving at my monthly stamp group. LOL! Yes, some of us are already in place on our trapeze. Others arrive in a bit of a state of disarray, feathers a-flying…. Watch the video below or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.
Even with just a limited color palette, watercolor can make for a fun card…if you’ve never tried any watercolor, pick one and try your hand!

It’s so funny to see how all those birds wanted to have a seat on the same swing (?)
I love this “messy” style, you are such a great artist Sandy!
This is just so so fun! I love this stamp set and your great card!
So cute you always make me smile. As always thanks for all your sharing of techniques and ideas,am loving this month of cards and creations.
What a love card!
Love this! My daughter and her 2 little boys were here today and the 4 of us were all sitting around water colouring, such fun!
They look happy even if in chaos mode.
Love your birds of a feather card!
Oh how cute! And the funny story! That is an adorable stamp set and I love your yellows!
Hehehe loving the fun story behind this card, I personally like the added yellow to emphasise the chaos you take with you. Painted so well again, I can watch you paint/ colour for ages, very calming, can’t imagine there are enough feathers available for when my friends & I meet up. x
Hi Sandy, I love Lesley Oman’s stamps (she is a good friend) from Heffy Doodle and this new set with Birds of a Feather is fabulous. I love the story you tell about how the birds are you and your friends. It is hilarious! Great water colouring too. Would never have thought to have all the birds the same colour. :O)
Nifty stamp set – and I love the name of it – “Wingman”! Also – good to know that even the experts have cards going in a direction that wasn’t planned… altho it happens to me a lot more often! This one turned out great, tho – what a hoot!
