It's called "Art of nature"
Nature in itself has a lot of color, structure, scents and our senses can pick that up. The beauty of it will never seize to make me full of joy as to what our Creator made for us to enjoy and treasure.

It's called "UITZICHT" dutch for prospect, meaning for me as in view of the future; basis of this being the eternal life in Jesus Christ.
The background is playful with a lot of layering of colors and textures, scraping in wet structure paste etc.
The flowers are fussy cut watercolors I did a while ago (I have a whole fodder book full of them, in every color of the rainbow... )

It's called "Natuur" dutch for Nature....
This page depicts my love for nature, created by our Father in Heaven so beautifully. The pictures are from a book I purchased from a thrift store called Flowering Plants Of the World by V.H. Heywood.
I bought a second book one of this book (this time a dutch version) also from a thrift store, and chose the lesser one for ripping pages out, which turned out to be the english version. When I had only one copy, I could just not start on ripping pages out, lol.
It has a ton of beautiful illustrations!! Grab a copy if you can find one, if you collage fodder to be used in creating. I paid 8 euro for the english version, and only 1 euro for the dutch one. There are several copies online varying from around 10 euro to prices I would never pay for second-hand book.
Coring the background has been done with Twinkling H2o watercolors.

I hope you find some inspiration in my creation of today!
Have a good weekend!
Playing with stamps and color is like going on a journey.
You start and end up making a unique creation!
This card started out with watercolor paints that were on my palette all mixed up, and I wanted to clean it: what better way as to make some rainbow colored cards?
I covered it with household wrap until it was dry.
The fun part was to play with stamps and fill up the surface.
The how to:
- stamp and heat emboss some background stamps in white as shown.
- mask off the white squares, and by masking the image the second time, stamp the images one in front of the other with a black ink.
- add touches of color to the images and the tiny squares for more interest and of course to create the focal point.
- Add black stamped script to the background.
- Draw with a white acrylic marker around the images to make them pop more.
- distress the edges with a paper-distresser.
- assemble the card front to a card base.
See you next time..
