I did have to omit a layer, because this card just kept getting bigger, and bigger! That's my problem with the sketches, I start with a part that I like, then have to balance it all out!!
Used my new square Riley Tree stamp from Impression Obsession to make the stamped background pattern. Also stamped off onto other paper, then punched out flowers so they were lighter colored. Smudged distress inks and a little stazon black with my fingers on cream cardstock first, then stamped watering can over it (I'll call this faux watercoloring!).
I think Impression Obsession is becoming one of my new favorite companies...their "nature" stamps are very cool and unique!

Well, those stamps cant be anymore unique or cool than you, Ms Kelly! This is just so amazing artistic. Are you sure you're in the right profession? Just imagine where this creativity could take you.... I'm overwhelmed actually...even though you described your techniques, I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about: See, that's how advanced you are with card crafting!
