I didn't know how this water color would go. But I am so happy with how it turned out, I couldn't bear to stamp anything over it. I mounted it on Extra heavy White CS but I'm not sure where it will go. When I decide, I will stamp a sentiment then.

Pat, you did an OUTSTANDING card for this challenge. Really impressive how you gave such depth to the scene with the mountains in increasing hues. Lovely watercolored sky too.

Beautiful, Pat. I think this is for framing instead of sending. Your distant trees look fabulous and I love the complete card.

Super duper, Pat! Love the look you achieved ( our 2 versions really are quite similar - don't you think?) I especially like the extra line of trees far off in the mist - it adds another nice dimension.
Curious as to which series Strathmore you are using - 200 - 300 or 400. The one I have is Series 300 . . . . and I have never gotten the smooth looking coverage you have shown us here.
