A quick post today as I’ve got my Mum visiting for a few days and I always like to make the most of her visits. I did want to share these quick and easy watercolor cards that I colored while I was at CHA though. I can’t travel without at least a little something crafty tucked away in my suitcase so I’d packed a travel set of Winsor & Newton half pans, a couple of brushes and a set of Watercolor Doodles.

When jet lag hit and I kept waking very early in the morning, at first I’d lay there trying to get back to sleep but when it escaped me I’d get up and make the most of the time with a little watercoloring by lamp light :D

On returning home I simply mounted the cards on Fog card bases on which I’d white heat embossed the Hero Arts Woodgrain set.

To finish I couldn’t resist a sprinkling of sequins along with a few white gel pen accents.

Well I’ve got a couple of days planned of wandering around galleries with my Mum, tea and cake stops, bit of shopping, nice lunch somewhere cosy to make up for the rain … I will be back here on Friday though with another watercolor post :D
