For today's Water Color Wednesday challenge we are to emboss resist an image and then watercolor over the embossing.
I used the technique shown on the link to an SCS tutorial.
Since it was an outdoor scene - I decided to use Distress Pumice Stone Embossing Powder rather than white. It also gives it a rough texture and a little bit of glittery shine in the light. I colored along the edges of each section of the image and then used a water brush pen to draw the color into the section.
My son and daughter-in-law recently sent me a photo of themselves canoeing down a river in a red canoe so I will send them this card as a reminder of their adventure!

How lovely! I really like the pumice ep for this outdoor scene. The sky is so pretty in this...like the sun is just coming up. And who can resist a red canoe!

I do see the sheen of your powder and it looks wonderful. I love that you have made this beautiful scene for your son and DIL. They are sure to love it and it is wonderfully colored.

I like the fingers of morning sunrays coming up from behind your distant stands of trees - and those red canoes - just awesomely eye-catching in contrast to the more somber colors in the landscape.
