Finally got my card done for the 2nd Watercolor challenge! Linda wants us to water color with ink pads or reinkers and try one of the listed techniques. I used Distress inks (except for watercolor pans for her skin) and tried both glazing and wet on wet. Since I added a rainbow, this also fits Dawn's March 13 Free 4 All Roy G. Biv challenge.
The pretty Unity girl was a RAK from Polly (peeps321). I glazed the dress, and used wet on wet for the sky and rainbow. This was definitely a challenge for me! I muddied the rainbow by dragging a wet brush through her hair, then overworked the rainbow trying to clean it up. I distressed the edges and mounted on a navy mat and white card base. So glad to have Dina's video and the skillful instruction of Linda, Angela, Brenda and Kia! TFL

This is just perfect...the soft gray hues would not be as lovely if your rainbow hadn't gotten 'muddied'! Such an inspiring card, especially to remember what is truly important: Keeping a childlike heart!
