Nature Speaks With Colour

Hello...

We haven't been able to sit out and enjoy the garden this summer ... Too much rain, cool temperatures and soon Autumn will be here...


The colours in my card are a mix of summer and autumn ... just a play with distress inks, gold pen ink and vellum...


These colours make me happy... I love their randomness and how they just flow into each other
The vellum dipped in gold ink reminds me of the crispness that Autumn brings 


Maybe next month I'll take another trip to the beach, on the island I love so much... just to 
feel the warmth of the sea breeze and gaze up at blue skies...

Have a happy day

Beautiful fall colors and an exquisite card. I myself have come a step closer to trying watercolors: bought the paper...

Beautiful summer colors, Ros, if I was limited to my summer colors, it would be browns and browner! Our weather is so hot, but then I could be complaining about cold...so I won't complain, just deal with the heat and use your pretty colors...which happen to be some of my favorites! Hoping for you a beautiful fall! Happy Friday!

A real beauty, Ros. She tells a story. The colours are beautiful, some of my favourites, too. Your gold dipped vellum petals are stunning!

If I had to describe this card in one word it would be "DREAMY"..so soft, pretty and stunning! We have had the most gorgeous weather here, but it is going fast, like you said it will be autumn before we know it and then the dreaded "S" word....but at least you have your beautiful talent to create with and that is worth more then anything!!

Tracy said...

sigh....so soothing. I really like the softness of the vellum paired with the hints of gold. I need to loosen up with my watercoloring. I have to learn to leave it alone instead of keep messing with it. Beautiful work Ros.
