New Release at Two Paper Divas Stamps

 The new release for Two Paper Divas stamps starts today and I'm featuring the new set, "Howdy".  Once in awhile, I like to mix it up and do some of my own art work on a project, and that's what I've done today;  a watercolored forest scene to accent that fabulous sentiment!

 I started by watercoloring some trees with Hero Arts Ombre ink.  This watercolor technique is very simple.  Take your ink pad and press onto an acrylic block or craft mat.  Spritz with water and paint with a paint brush, or use a water brush.  I did use my Tim Holtz waterbrush for this project.

The fence was fun to do.  I started by painting a white post, then used a small angled paintbrush to brush on some brown distress ink for a shaded, woody look.  Lastly, I lightly sponged some white chalk ink to blend and soften the edges.

It's just what I wanted as a backdrop for that fabulous sentiment.  Our family loves to visit State Parks and hike on the trails.  This scene reminds me of when we last went to visit Little River Canyon State Park in Alabama. 

I just adore this sentiment!  Good 'ole Roy Rogers sang that familiar song.   Check out the day one April release below.  You won't believe what the design team has come up with.  Seriously.  Check out Jenny Ewing's Birthday Cake card!!  You'll find this card featured on the day 2 release, tomorrow.
