Well I am tripling up on this challenge. My card will go to Beth who is an unhappy Stamper right now because of illness. I found a bigger brush in my jar that that gave me better results with the watercolor than with my first cards. And I had these pretty flower and flourishing die cuts that Jan (heartsong) had sent me in a tickle quite a while back. They were sitting Unused. so before that flower got any more unruly in the envelope I decided to use them instead of doodling on this one. I am quite happy with the results and hope Beth will love the bright colors.

A beautiful card and the flourish really pops from the background colors. Love it!

Oh, this is really stunning, Pat. Well done on the w/c. That is a striking black diecut you used. Very creative with the U words! I am sure Beth will love this!

Oh my - I am grooving on that bg - I love the variety of shapes and color that seem to ebb and flow as one looks deep into them. That die cut is simply fabulous!

The black die-cut looks super against the background. A bigger brush certainly helps for those, like a 1" wash brush. I like your background, it makes me think of stained glass.
