VIDEO - A Buy Nothing Watercolor Card

I've talked a lot about my local Buy Nothing group, which is a phenomenal group. This weekend, I was going through some things to give away, and I thought I'd share a card made with something I got from a neighbor on the group. 

Someone was giving away music books recently and you know I cannot resist an old music book or old books, so I put my name in the hat. 

One of the books was wonderful in a LOT of ways as you will see in the video. 

I used a page as a backdrop of song for these beautiful bird dies. I cut them from watercolor paper and painted them with Daniel Smith watercolor. I used these shaker dies to cut two circles in the center - I modified one as you'll see in the video - how you treat old paper makes a huge difference so I'll give you some tips. The sentiment and die are from this set.

Here's the video - please note, the first part is sped up watercolor with music, 
and the second part is where I start talking:


I made the coconut cake again - SO good. Other than that, I really didn't cook this weekend. I had made tortillas and refried beans last week so I just had a combo of tacos and nachos all weekend during the Hero Arts Spring Stamp-Along. PS - the Credo spicy queso is a phenomenal dairy free queso.

I thought this event was PHENOMENAL - I learned so very much, and I agree with what one of the participants said - how MUCH info you got for the price was just staggering. If you have regrets, you can still purchase this event here

Hope you have a great week ahead!
