Weekend sketching
We had a wedding to attend this last weekend and I like to make cards to go along with my hand-made gift. So I started with a watercolour on some cardstock, inspired by these watercolours that I had painted last year. And then I just kept making a few more, playing with different colours and shapes. Sometimes it's nice to work on something small, working through a simple concept to see where it goes. Plus it's nice to have a few cards ready to go when the occasion arises.

wild lilies and inspiration #3
We had a great Easter weekend catching up with friends and family! Unfortunately I ended up losing all my photographs from the weekend on my sister's computer just before we left for home from the Island...
I did manage to grab a few photos of these lovely wild lilies and started searching for some inspiration to go with the photos. Of course these lovely vintage Easter-lily cards came up in my search, a little after the weekend, but nonetheless, appropriate for the season!
