watercolored etsy inspiration {eic112}

Have you gotten Etsy Inspired yet?  There are some fabulous inspiration and prizes this week! This week's inspiration comes to us from the Etsy store of BeiLeXian, the winner receives their choice from any print valued at $18.

And this week's Sponsor is Sweet and Sassy Stamps - one lucky winner will receive $15 Store Credit. 

I was inspired by all these wonderful watercolored prints from BeiLeXian 

 
 

I used my Fabriano Medioevalis notes for this week's inspiration, these are italian made cold press watercolor stock cards roughly 3 x 5 in size, with a hand deckled edge.   They're thick and very yummy!

On the first card I used Friendship Jar and Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers from Papertrey Ink.   I watercolored the image and added some little smiley faces to the marshmallows. 

 

 

On the second card, I used an "Ippity" set "Moon Beam and Heart Strings"

 

To play along::

**Go to the Stilleto Heights shop, look around, and find an item that inspires you.

**Make any creation that you would like (i.e. pages for a scrapbook, altered journal, cards, wall art, etc.) and post a link on the Etsy Inspired blog by Friday, October 29nd at noon Pacific time.
