Here's mine. It was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be for me. But definitely something I'm going to keep working on. Thanks for the challenge!!
Thanks Beth for a great technique! Usually I get quite annoyed when this "technique" happens. It never occurred to me to use it as an advantage. Here's my Blurry Bouquet.
Thanks Beth for the challenge. What a great way to do water. Here's mine. Now I can't wait to cook dinner so I can have a look at all the other posts. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I made two cards this afternoon. (Which is surprising because my 5 year old son was sick with the stomach flu this morning and is now feeling much better, so now he's full of energy!) It kind of stopped on me when I was downloading the second card, so hopefully it went through. (It actually looks like it downloaded it twice, so...)
These challenges are so much fun!! A perfect excuse to stamp! Plus, I've decided to start making full cards instead of card fronts so I will actually use them!
For this first card, I wanted to create the look of water, so I used the aqua painter on the sayings, but you can't really tell in the photo. It was a good attempt!
I have never done this before and I loved the soft look that you get. I needed to start making some St. Pat's day cards and wanted to get away from the traditional card. Thanks for a great challenge.
I had to upload this card again as it was deleted the first time. The site didn't like it the second time either but it finally let it go. I hope it stays.
I was so excited to get up and have a snow day today. I thought I'd be able to play, but couldn't seem to get it done until tonight. Really cool techniques.
Here are my two cards: Paisley Butterfly and Blurred Butterfly
I was just reading everyone's explanations on how they painted their lines with a watercolor brush and realized that I totally read our challenge wrong. Duh!!! I inked up my image and took a wet brush over the outline of the stamp and then placed it down. I am a crazy person. Oh well......I had to admit my mistake.

Oh Kittie you're to funny, I didn't quite understand either, until I looked at some of the cards. You're not crazy.
OK...I really like the layout of my card and the Basic Grey paper and my beautiful new Greenhouse plastic flowers. But I'm gonna have to do my flamingo over again. I couldn't get my ink to bleed! I used my aqua painter right after I stamped the image, but I had to use so much water to get any bleeding at all, that the paper started to rub off (see the beak). So maybe Pretty in Pink isn't the best color for this technique...too light? Maybe I'll try Cameo Coral. Oh well...TFL!
