Helping Me Grow and some more original artwork...

Our workshops last month featured the Helping Me Grow stamp set.  We made this fun watercolor card.

The Watercolor Paper is a must have for this type of watercoloring.  Clear water was dropped on the tag to match the main image.  Colors used were Smoky Slate, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive and Crushed Curry.  

I mentioned the art show yesterday and this was another of my favorite artists from the event.  Her name is Samantha C. George and she's a toy designer and artist.  She painted these adorable little dragons, so I bought each of the girl's months for their cards this year.  It's hard to tell from the photo, but she has some mica chips and glitter glued on for some shine.  

She also had a good assortment of little 3x3 cards and each one has a little glitter. Love them!!
