Audrie wants us to play with color today.....we all like color. The color board is amazing with many color combos. This would be the one that inspired me. https://www.pinterest.com/pin/184718022194829299/
We all learn from mistakes. Right? My new adventure of calligraphy has taught me to stay away from water with the ink used. It is not waterproof. Now, using a die cut out the portion that would be written on until the painting is done. Water colored the flowers and leaves using a round brush...added centers with a fine black micron pen. Wrote the sentiment. Added this panel with dimensionals.
We have frost warnings out for this evening. Yuck! TFL

No stamps??!! Just wonderful, artistic you. What a lovely, lovely creation, Linda. Your calligraphy looks fantastic, but yes, that ink is not colourfast:(

I've had this up on my screen nearly all day, trying to come up with the words to express how totally awesome you're water coloring is. I'll gush later when you call. For now... Favored and Pinned!

Linda, this is a definite WOW card! I love how the painting flows into your center panel and I bow to you to be able to write your sentiment! The once or twice I succeeded I had to do each word separately and combine them in Photoshop! This is truly a gorgeous card!
