Thanksgiving Week Day 1 - Watercolors

Welcome to Day 1 of our 5 for 5 Thanksgiving Blog Event! Today our theme is "Watercolor". We are all sharing a project where we used watercolors. Each day our 5 Designers will post a Thanksgiving Inspired Project based on a theme. Some of us are offering prizes, so be sure to visit all the links below and leave comments!

I had a lot of fun mixing and matching stamp sets to create this watercolor Thanksgiving card...

This was also my first attempt at NO LINE watercoloring! Which basically just means this card took 8 times longer to paint than it normally would (ha). BUT it also meant I was reacquainted with my favorite Peerless Watercolors. They really are gorgeous. 

The fabulous moose is from Lawn Fawn "Critters in the Arctic" and the sweet little squirrel is from Avery Elle "Happy Camper". Now, I reeeealllly mixed and matched sets because the sentiment and the background are good ol' red rubber stamps by Unity Stamp Co. The forest trees are from the Kit of the Month December 2014 and the sentiment from the Kit of the Month August 2014. 

Now it's time to visit the other designers! Have fun!
