I made this card for this month's MFT Ambassador #1 Challenge. The challenge was to use watercoloring in some way. Well, I wanted to participate, but I didn't really have anything to watercolor with, so I decided to improvise.
I taped down a piece of Paper-Source's "Creme Luxe" -- a super thick, textured, watercolor paper-like paper -- and decided to try to watercolor on it using this morning's left over coffee and coffee grounds (and salt -- it makes a neat effect). I think the results are very pretty!
I'll be giving a tutorial on this technique on my blog tomorrow:
