I definitely do not call myself an artist!
I have to admit I do give things a go but some things
I do give up on, and I personally think this is going
to have to be one of those things!

First of all I roughly drew my picture.
As you see I am not much of a drawer either
Cleaned the picture using the tools on the computer
then put it into a card making programme
Because the printer has taken on a 'life of its own'
and has been doing its own thing for awhile
I printed eight pictures on a page I gave the paper
(Bristol Board - watercolour paper won't go through the printer!)
a light wash in a light green. Put it to one side to dry.
Leave each stage to dry before proceeding to the next
I then filled in the colours - rather like in a painting book
Every sheet was slightly different.
There were eight sheets in all
I then embellished the pictures again each page slightly different
Layer together using glue or double sided sticky tape
add an insert and send to friends and relatives
