My mother in law requested more greeting cards recently. I have been busy with non-crafty things, and my first thought was “I don’t really have time”.
Then, as luck would have it, Ellen Hutson posted a video by Julie Ebersole that inspired my simple layout.

It seems like forever since I have posted. I have been very busy with elderly parent tasks for my in-laws.
I painted this for personal use. I used Dr. Ph. Martin’s liquid watercolors (Hydrus Set 1) – they are so vibrant.
I will admit, I had a difficult time trimming it down from the original size (8.5 x 5.5) to fit on a card front – I didn’t want to lose any of the flowers.
