Miss you this summer | August inspiration with a hill scenery watercolor painting

Hi everyone!
I hope you are in well and having so much fun on July, and now we are welcoming the other month, the month of August,
for me, this month is particularly a special month , because one of my boy will accomplish his another milestones :)

Ok, that is my short story,
and today I have a card that I made for August inspiration featuring an image from Magnolia company while back ago, but I think she deserves to featured on a summer card

One fine sunny day in a village,
with a peace, calm and nice weather around, there is a girl with her cute giant flower .. she walks alone and she want to meet someone, someone far away, who she really misses a lot ...
she looked up at the sky, when there was an airplane ... she said, oh please take my heart to him and tell him that i miss him more than just a little!


I paint a background behind the image and I imagine about a hill when the Summer still around,
I know I am not an expert so I still have a little afraid when I paint on my card, but I remind my self; just being fun with all the idea and don't be afraid of making mistakes.

Making mistakes is a lot better than not doing anything.
 - Billie Joe Armstrong -

That was my favorite quote, and it always makes me more confidence when I am painting.


I cut some decoration with Magnolia dies from DooHickey box and Vintages box to get more interest, and the focal panel stitched manually.



I know I made mistakes here and there, but mistakes make me braver,and eventually mistakes make me even more happy to enjoy my painting journey :)


Have a day that means something, everyone!

What a sweet story told through this pretty card. I'd love to try doing something like this with my watercolours but i haven't had much practise. Your cards always look beautiful.
