Just breathe

This is my reminder post for the Time Out Challenge.  We have a lovely inspiration photo for you:
I really wanted to focus on the canvas hanging on the wall.  So, I used some watercolor paper and some of my SU! dye inks to water color a similar "canvas".  Then I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder and finished everything off with some little bird stamps.
Once again, I used some burlap as a mat to add that texture in.

Thanks so much for stopping by and Thanks a whole bunch to the TO team for having me guest design alongside them.

Stamps; Stamplorations Say It Big: "just breathe"; Repeat Impressions "Sandcastle" but I used only the birds in the image.
