THIS was a quick card for me, no coloring. However, it was take FIVE. I never get the same feeling from a card with no coloring, which makes me try and try again to get that same feel from the finished product. After no kidding the fifth try, I picked my favorite and went with it!! Next week, I color again. Happy Tuesday every one!!!

What a unique card Karen - and I really mean that in a good way. This is so creative and outside of your norm. You used the colors in a most beautiful way. I love all of the flowers on the bottom half. Very neat!! :>)

Karen, your cards are always a winner. I know what you mean about the coloring. It just doesn't seem right if we don't color, does it? It is beautiful and colorful !

Karen, I love the way you picked up the colors in that wonderful DS paper, to create the sweet flower garden at the top. They are perfect together! The little lacy strip and the ribbon finish the card off to perfection!

What a fun look! I love the popped up flowers and how the bottom looks. I can't believe it was fast. You do amazing things with stamps and colors! Hugz

Your fussy cutting is meticulous on this beauty! Lovely use of colors, even if there is no Watercoloring. You achieved a watercolor effect... How can you not? You're Karen! Beautiful and I will case this one. I've had a try with this set and haven't gotten results like this. Beautiful.
