I have another watercolor card to share... this one is especially for you Marika !
Marika is a very talented blogfriend whose talent I really admire. She encouraged me not to pack away my watercolor paint, and go on experimenting!
I am playing in the colors of The paper players : Calypso Coral, Red and Black, and the sketch at Freshly made sketches ( a bit of a liberal take on the sketch ;)
To make the watercolor panel, I masked the area with a piece of card stock, cut with my craft knife.
Just make sure you don't add too much water, so that the color stay inside the lines.
The butterfly was cut with my Silhouette.
The sentiment is digital, and was added after the paint was completely dry.
Font used ~ Channel .
Nothing much to it, but here it is if you don't have the font on you computer !
Thanks so much for visiting me today !

WOW,Hannelie...this card is amazing!! Love the colors,the watercoloring and pretty butterfly! Love the font of your "Hello"!!
This is stunning card! Colors and idea are amazing. I love your watercoloring, Hannelie!
You can make the simplest design so memorable, Hannelie. The swoosh of color makes me think of the movement of the butterfly wings. The intense colors of your butterfly draw the eye and make such an amazing contrast with the white cardstock. This is beautiful!
Very, very cool!
Lekker experimenteren zou ik zeggen. Super mooi resultaat! Maar dat is jou wel toevertrouwd!
Tweede poging...blogger doet een beetje vreemd..
Ik zei, lekker blijven experimenteren, het gaat je goed af. Onwijs mooi resultaat, maar dat is jou wel toevertrouwd!
What a striking card! Love your watercolor "swoosh"!!! Very pretty! And thanks for the "hello" as well! So glad you shared this with us at the Paper Players this week!
That's such pretty card! Love the colours and the 'swoosh' is stunning!
Absolutely stunning card!
So elegant!
You are so clever, Hannelie! I'm so glad you didn't give up on your water coloring...this is truly a stunning work of art...LOVE it!!!
Hannelie, thank you for your kind words! They warmed my heart on this cold, wintery day here in Finland. This card is so striking! I always love to see, when you make cards with just a few elements on them and you always still get the "wow" factor on them!! You're so so talented as well, my friend!
Hannelie, what a fabulous use of the colors. I love all of that white space and how every element focuses on one spot. An amazing card. So glad you joined us at The Paper Players this week

Joe, vrou, nou moet ek eers uitwerk wat die maklikste manier is om met die nuwe bloglovin te werk!!!! Ai toggie, hoekom het hule nou gaan verander aan die ou manier, dit het so goed gewerk en nou lyk dit my die nuwe manier is meer fancy as prakties!!!! En ek het so baie besoeke wat ek moet doen, want laas week het ek gordyne en blindings gemaak en weer nie by die rekenaar uitgekom nie!!! So meoilik as mens so baie stokperdjies het wat jou tyd vereis en wat jy geniet!! (en tussinin moet jy nog kinders rondry en kos maak en wasgoed was ens!!!!!)
Jou kaartjie is pragtig, vrou!! Die helder oranje is so lieflik en ek hou van die verskillende skakerings van die oranje wat jy daar het - dit lewe so lekker!!!! En weer die stunning skoenlapper wat elke keer vanvooraf my hart steel!!! Die sentiment lyk pragtig en ek hou regtig van jou gebruik van die skets!!!! Baie mooi gedoen, vrou!!!
Groete
