I tried something new today... a little bit of water colouring -
'little' being the operative word!
When it comes to 'arty' stuff, I am rubbish, but I found a small tin of kids paints
at the bottom of a craft box and thought I would give them a go.
I mixed up some yellow on an acrylic stamp block and painted it onto my card panel.
Eek ! I am so chuffed.
Yes, I know the average 4 year old could do this just as well, but it's a start :-)

I can totally relate to the whole- can't color like a 5 year old bit- and yet the cards turn out. I'm totally going to describe myself as chuffed one day this week! :) Charming card that really works. So glad to have found you through Simon Says Stamp's challenge.
Looks lovely, Caroline! Great colour combo and I now want that penguin set even more than I did before, Jo x
This is gorgeous Caroline, the watercoloured background looks fabulous and I LOVE the cute penguin.

Hi Caroline! Just in case you don't see the reply to your question on my blog - I did a very long post back in February last year which explains and shows how I store my paper pads, including the way I have halved envelopes in the backs of them for snippets :)
