In the Garden – 2

I’m excited to share another watercolor project with you today.

I used the colors from this week’s Colour Me Challenge #59: SU’s Pool Party, So Saffron & Real Red.

 I used an emboss-resist technique on this card, stamping in VersaMark, adding clear embossing powder, heating and then painting the image and the background. I’m going to play this card over at Addicted to Stamps & More’s Challenge #132 – Make your Mark  and even though I don’t have any Neat and Tangled stamps I love the inspiring cards in their watercolor challenge, so I’m going to try playing over there for the first time!

Thanks for stopping by!

P.P.S. I’m super pleased to tell you that this card was chosen for honorable mention at Addicted to Stamps and More! Thank you for the recognition ATSM! 🙂 Edited Sat March 28: Just discovered that this card was chosen as an honorable mention over at Little Tangles. Thank you so much! 🙂
