Whimsy Stamps - DoveArt Watercoloured Tags

 Hello everyone,

Today I have a project to show you that I have been wanting to do for aaaages!

I have wanted to watercolour some of Jennifer Dove's beautiful Whimsy Stamps DoveArt images 

I finally got around to it last week after being inspired by some of Sandy Allnock's fabulous Christmas tags.

I am not a great watercolorist but this was something I really wanted to do and I had a lovely peaceful time painting these tags.

The thing with Jenn's images is that she shows you where the light and shade are in the design which makes them a pleasure to colour.

I also stamped and heat embossed the designs in black as the embossed outlines help contain the watercolour paint making it much easier to work with!

Enormous thanks to Sandy Allnock for always being so kind and inspirational!

Confession time! - quite by accident I used a retired stamp to create the santa tag - I'm so sorry but to be honest you could make a set of these tags using only one image and they would still be lovely!
