Happy March! Did it roar in like a lion or lamb for you? We’re leaning more into the lion....so lets hope the end of the month is a lamb!
Did you see the newest Café au Lait illustration from Power Poppy released last week? Oh it’s just dreamy! It’s called Clover and Pansies and it’s part of a series of illustrations Marcy is doing of floral arrangements in these little bowls (the two others are Snowdrops and Tea Roses and My Favorite Pair which I also did HERE in watercolour) . They’re all inspiring, and this one is so cheerful with the combination of pansies, clover and forget me nots! As you can tell, I had spring on the brain and coloured it up in some vibrant shades with my Copics. There are just so many unique types of pansies and clover, so I found some fun combinations to work with.
I printed the image so be able to give it a no-line look and then paired it with some pretty papers to match the little arrangement. I found the PERFECT sentiment for the set, and for St. Patrick’s Day coming up in March with Power Poppy’s polymer set, Chrysanthemum. I stamped just part of the sentiment on the outside and then the whole thing on the inside.
Isn’t that a lovely thing to say to someone?
Here’s the collection of Copics I used for today’s card.
