A Day on the Beach

Hurray for Thursday!  My favourite day of the week!  Today I have another watercolour for you.  Believe it or not, it took me two hours of playing around with different papers and layouts before I finally put this layout together.  This image was all girl and delicate, so I wanted the card to be too.

Have you noticed how I crop my photos now so that the space around the card is gone?  I’m finally learning a little bit of photoshop.  I bit the bullet and signed up for a two-afternoon class at the college that starts in two weeks.   Once that’s finished I’ll be signing up for Adoebe Illustrator.

Have a great day!

Stamp:  Inkadinkado; Metal, Stamp’n Up
