A great challenge from Stacy this week for making multiples. I made eight designs, threw away two I didn't like, and showing three of them. I made an A2 card, a tag, and a notecard from my watercolor designs. Will probably make more tags.
The tutorial is from THECREATIVECOVE Playing With Watercolor and Stamps--mini thumbnail ephemera
I taped off the sections on a watercolor sheet to make eight designs and used a stamp for one design and sketched the other two. I used a lot of gold metallic which doesn't show in the photo as much as I wanted. I loved the blues, golds, and browns but did a few in different colors.
This is fun and a good way to create several cards, etc. Hope you will join in the fun.

oooh these are so cool, I love that you finished them. and I cannot see the gold I used on mine in the mug shot. ( only when I pick it up and tilt it just so) but, I am imagining the shimmers.

Great job with doing all the tiny paintings. Like how used the gold and various colors. Terrific job with this challenge. I liked her fun approach on the video. TFS
Beautiful! Your paintings are so striking! The gray and gold ones look like vintage tin artwork. The pink and blue background makes me smile because I wanted to use a similar background for a deadline card, and after making my WCW card, I went back to the beginning of our challenges to find your cloud challenge.

I forced myself out of my comfort zone with brown & blue today but my heart is drawn to your pink and blue card (Me colors) The blend and motion in this is fabulous!

I like these a lot and you got 3 projects out of your efforts. I had 2 that didn't cut it but it was more the stamp selection than the paints. My favs are the ones on the right with all the gold.
