My Favaorates has got to be the Christmas tree and Star card and the Star (pinted in blue water colour and silver ink)
I think it must have taken between half and hour to one hour to paint each one. it was kidda peaceful sitting listening to music while doing them, just wish I had started working on them sooner so I could have done more of them.
