Words of Encouragement . . .

 Hello Friends . . .

With all the turmoil that seems to be in our world today, I thought the challenge over on the 'Just Us Girls' blog had the perfect theme to create with today ... ENCOURAGEMENT.   Lord knows we can all use a kind word and more encouragement to others these days!  Thanks to Elizabeth for hosting this perfect theme this week!

 

Here's what I've created . . .


 And, of course those of us going through Winter Blues right now might also enjoy a 'breath of spring' so I went with this pretty Altenew Paint-a- Flower: Clematis stamp set for my creation.  

 

After stamping, I water colored using my Tombow markers & an artist brush.   I've added a few score lines and a sentiment which is also a part of this set.


Hope you've found inspiration in today's creation.

I would also like to share today's creation in the Altenew January Challenge.
 
 November 2025 Inspiration Challenge

Have a great day and thanks for taking the time to stop by!
 
 
As always . . .

  4. Oooh, how pretty this is with all those wonderful colors! I like your score lines as a frame. I see spring emerging in the garden. We're having some sunny days, but rain will be back soon enough.
