MAWTT - In the Wild

Hello... I hope you are all doing ok today...  it's the turn of Team B once again at


our lovely Hazel L is hosting this week and she has given us a fab theme of...

'In the Wild'

 A very simple card for this challenge... I've used a lovely Clearly Besotted Stamp Set which was Free Gift with Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine recently. I printed onto smooth Watercolour Paper and painted it with Watercolours. I love Fuschias... always used to imagine they were fairies when I was a child. And apparently these fuschias do grow wild in some parts of Scotland and Ireland!


Stamp Set: Clearly Besotted
Colouring Medium: Watercolour Paints

I hope you can pop over to our main site at MAWTT and see the rest of the Team's wild and wonderful creations this week!!

Thanks for all your lovely comments, I really do appreciate you taking the time to visit my blog!
Will catch up with you soon
Take Care
Love and hugs

This is gorgeous Sue, such a beautiful image and stunning colouring.
I love fuschias too. My Nan and Grandad had the most glorious plant in their garden so seeing the flowers always reminds me of them and happy times spent with my Grandparents.
Big hugs Sue xx

Think my brain must be stopping working, I'm engrossed in your post, and you imagining fuchsias were fairies, and for some strange reason, when I read apparently, my mind finished off the sentence with..,they are!!! Maybe I haven't been getting my full quota of sleep after all!!! Anyway, I too love fuchsias, and I adore your beautifully coloured card, love your mad blog friend! Jx

Love this Sue, your watercolouring is perfect, I got this set when I was home in Feb and haven't use the Fuschias yet. I too LOVE Fuschias, when I lived in London, my Ma would let me grow them in her garden. Cx
