Watercolor Birthday Llama!

Hello crafters, it’s Nina-Marie here with you today, sharing some inspiration featuring our Simon exclusive It’s Your Birthday, Suzy Watercolor Prints! 

One of the reasons as to why I love these Suzy Watercolor Prints so much is that they make for customizable crafting projects! You can simply color the prints for a beautiful card, or you can get really creative and die cut, fussy cut, stamp, embellish and more for a unique, one of a kind creation! 

I’m using the adorable llama card, and coloring it with my favorite Prima and Daniel Smith watercolors. When selecting my colors, I specifically selected them to coordinate with the Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow papers adhered behind the watercolor panel.

After coloring, I decorated the card with a few Groovy confetti pieces, which really complements the colors across the entire design! 

I love how this bright and colorful birthday card turned out, and I hope you are inspired to do a bit of coloring of your own!
