Than you to Heather for a great tutorial for the Vintage Watercolor Technique. I was able to do it! I didn't believe it till I used it, but the black did turn kind of green on the leaves and stems. I did this as a thank you for the manager at our Michaels, because she fixed my ATG tape runner for me today! She is so sweet, and always is when I go in. This is also for Ina's S2S Challenge to make a card that celebrates our Moms. My mother was lovely and she had a green thumb. She could grow anything. She loved planting and then cutting them and having them in the house. My Mom was vintage! Love her and miss her! She loved my cards, too. When she passed, I found every card I ever made her.
Thanks for looking.

Oh! This is so very beautiful!!! Gorgeous card! I loved reading your story about your mom. So sweet! My mom is kind of vintage too. She LOVES growing her greenery and keeps every one of my cards too.

I'm really looking forward to trying this technique out; I was a bit daunted at first, but you make me feel that it's worth trying next time I have a day off and a little time to spare. This really does have a fabulous vintage look.
