Mixed Media Coloring with Abby's Spring Showers

Hey there, how are you doing on this beautiful lovely day?

I am feeling cheery today. If you have grandchildren you know that pictures of them or visits can be the very best medicine there is. That's what I was remembering while I made this card using the Abby's Spring Showers stamps from Simon Says Stamp.

 Isn't she adorable?

I'm still in coloring mode and enjoying coloring and making whatever strikes my fancy without  recipients or occasions in mind. Just for fun. Coloring is mental therapy. 

I used Peerless watercolors on The Master's Touch watercolor paper (from Hobby Lobby) to color the background. Abby was colored with my Zigs Real Color Brush markers and details were added with colored pencils from Derwent. I added Wink of Stella to "sparkle" her hat, and a few details with a white gel pen. Very carefully. I didn't want to mess the whole thing up with crooked or splotchy white dots! Still on a learning curve with that. 

The Simon Says Happy and Smile Clear Stamps provided the sentiment.

Thanks so much for talking a peek!  I am on a roll with encouragement cards this week. Want to encourage me?  I'd love to hear from you! 

 Be yourself.

     Find delight in your craft.

          Make something beautiful!

Love your card. Great colors and thanks for the info on the stamps used for the sentiment. I have the Abby set and I recognized her right away but not the sentiment.
