Debby aka limedoodle is the featured stamper this week. I am a HUGE fan of Debby. I seriously wish I could case every card she makes - she does lovely watercoloring, and I love her step by step instructions on her blog.
I probably should have looked at her blog details on this one, but I just set out and tried casing this card:
and this was my favorite result. I changed my flowers to blue, did a salted background, added in some stenciling and poured some salt on my background before and after painting the flowers. Also added in some gold paint.
Added the salt to play in this week's watercolor challenge. I need to get rock salt because you can barely see the salt effects - they are mostly around the sentiment and a bit in the flowers since I salted before and after the flowers. Fun technique and I am loving the new weekly watercolor challenge.
Congrats Debby. Hope you enjoy seeing us all case your gorgeous cards.

Gorgeous background CASE and card, Nancy! Love the watercolor effect, your added texture and of course the splatters...you can't have a watercolor design without the splatters! (LOL)

Beautifully done on both challenges, Nancy. I am seeing some of your salt spots, but yes, I too have found the larger the salt crystals the bolder the rings and lift. I like the counterpoint between the boldly colored flowers with the soft misty looking bg.

Nancy, this is a lovely case of Debby's card. The soft splatters are so pretty and are just the perfect touch to draw the eye to your beautiful water colored images.
