You may remember the Maestro from an earlier post. Because the painting was not working for one reason or another, I ended up painting three versions. I didn't want to throw out the birds because I put a lot of work into them. Thanks to a suggestion from my lovely friend, Soma I decided to make a card. My rotary paper cutter is small, but I managed to cut the card stock and it looks straight. (I've seen so many beautiful cards on blogs that I visit. I could use a lesson.) Thankfully, I was lucky to find card stock in my craft supply suitcase and an envelope that fits.

Although this suitcase looks new, it reminds me of old travel cases. |

I love the pictures on the inside. |

I may make another card and paint the background, or perhaps I'll make a shadow box. Watercolour paper would work too. Perhaps I'll find a treasure to help me out inside the suitcase: a case full of surprises, almost magical it seems, because I toss a few things in now and then and rarely look inside.
I added a few original watercolour flower cards to my shoppe yesterday. There's one left. I am hoping to add more prints to the shoppe this fall, so I better start painting.
Enjoy the week!
