Well, this looked better in my head! Don't you hate when that happens???
It was hard to get the stamp to press well into the water color paper. I changed my mind about 50 times...and it is what it is. I think I'll try another later. (As my daughter said when she was little, POOPUS!!)

Ha! Is that Latin? Sounds like she was destined to become a lawyer
I've learned that the trick is to not have a clear picture in your mind, because it often causes disappointment. I think this card is lovely and a great idea for the challenge!

Been there and now I know what to say ;) I think your card is quite striking! The muted starfish be really makes the die cuts and sentiment pop. I say this is a happy accident and love it!

Well- I like it- the background is soft & subtle; love the blue & I really love the side sentiment. It's pretty even if it wasn't what you imagined. So many times my cards don't turn out like I imagined but that's what I love about this obsession- oops, I mean hobby. TFS!

Anne, your card is beautiful with the starfish image, anchor, and sentiment on the side! Stamping on watercolor paper has it challenges, but you did a great job!

I like the result! Personally I try to avoid stamping on textured watercolour paper and buy the finest ones I can, but I like the look when I see other people do it. The starfish image is super.
