Great colors for this week's CC760 challenge. Didn't have the exact colors but came close... wanted to use this awesome stamp set. I used markers on the floral stamps and then spritzed before stamping onto the watercolor paper. I stamped two images to create a bush-like look. The images came out slightly different so I tried to do a bit more smoothing - wasn't wild about how the flowers came out so I added some black dots to create a bit more definition. Stamped the butterflies direct to paper and then watercolored them. I tired spritzing them first, but that didn't work very well so had to start over. watercolor seems to require lots of trial and error. Added some blue wash to the background and some gems, and die cut the panels. TFL

I like the watercolor look and feel to the card. You did a nice job matching up the colors. It all looks great! I like the added gems. I hope you didn't throw out your other panel. You would be amazed at how it will look in a few days. Sometimes, you can just stamp on it and use it as a background. TFS!
