Today's challenge is another fun one!! Everyone love gifts! :) The challenge is hosted by our wonderfully talented, Linda (Lin's Craft Corner)! .
I had so much fun watercolouring the adorable image above. I smiled the whole time! :)
Inked up the image with Versafine Black ink then used my heat tool to make sure it was completely dry before watercolouring with my zigs. Zigs are such bright colours, I thought they would be best to colour this image. Using the colours of the rainbow made it even more special. :) I stamped a fun sentiment in black to match, and added 1 1/2" strip of chevron green patterned paper on the side.
Here's a close-up ...
Come play along! I'd love to see you in the gallery!

Paper: Mixed media paper (Strathmore 140 lb. 400 Series); Festive & Frosty Patterned paper (Penny Black)
