ETA (2/28/19) I am so pleased that Art Impressions chose my card for an Honorable Mention for their challenge! Thank you!

Let me start out by saying that this was not the card I sat down to create last night. I had planned to work on a cute little watercolor scene using the Art Impressions watercolor stamps. While I did use their little house stamp, other supplies that were out on my desk inspired an idea for an imaginary little fairy garden.

That is really what I like best about making card, just getting to be creative and let my mind run with an idea.
So the background is a stamp that I colored with markers, and then spritzed with water and stamped out onto watercolor paper. I then stamped and watercolored the house, cut it out and popped it into my scene. I did add some of the little grasses to ground it. I do not know where the die cut leaves came from, but I cut them up and added them to my card base.
Supplies: Art Impressions Watercolor Series structures, Grass from the foliage set, Just for Fun Rubber Stamps Floral Silhouette, Tombow Water based markers, Versafine Onyx black ink, other items from my stash.
I would love to play along with Art Impressions Challenge 250 Cottage or House.
Thanks very much for visiting today! Hope you have time for papercraft today or soon!

Charming! You do such a nice job with the watercolors.
Wonderful scene making and the elements all look wonderful. Great water colour effect too x. Such a pretty card. Glad you enjoyed being creative and ran with the idea x.
Lovely designed card and use of watercolours.
Heidi, I agree - just let your mind and hand work in unison to make beautiful art! This is super!
So darling with the little house amongst the flowers.
Hi Heidi, a fun and cute card suitable for any occasion. Have a wonderful week.. Megan
Fabulous lil fairy garden scene, Heidi. I have the big brother to your lil blue/white cat.
This card is just the cutest! Love how you created a little garden. The spritzing is nice and so is the addition of the house. Cool card!
You came up with a beautiful creation with your playing, I love the stamping of your background flowers and that house is too cute. I love the touch of the die cut leaves in the back that is such a great touch!
What a wonderful idea to use the house stamp in a fairy garden setting. It's so pretty!! Thank you for joining in the House or Cottage challenge at Art Impressions!
