Boy, do I have a humdinger of a card today!! This card is for 5 different challenges. I found the challenges via The Daily Dare run by our very own newly appointed Dirty Girl and personal friend of mine, Deb Felts!!!
The first challenge the is for is for today Limited Supplies Challenge 225 International Flair where we were to make a card using a different language on it. Mine is in Spanish and it means Thinking of You.
Third is the Daring Card Makers Challenge-Missing You where we were to make a card that shares your love with someone - it could be missing you, thinking of you, across the miles.
Fourth is for the Stamping B's Challenge #11 where we were to use the water coloring technique. I used Watercolor Crayons and a water brush.
And last. but not least, this is for the Viva la Verve Sketch Challenge where we were to follow the sketch with the twist of DP inspiration. I ended up not going with the rules. The rules were to use one DP how ever much you wanted and use it as your inspiration for your card. Well, I ended up using 2. I didn't realize I had done the challenge wrong until I went to upload it, but hey, it is still the sketch and was an awesome inspiration for me!!
My image is a digital image from KLM Designs. It is colored with Watercolor Crayons and a water brush. And yes, you can watercolor digital images if you heat set them with a heat gun before water coloring them.

I love the way the lily seems to be peeking over the bottom panel. Wonderful! That's Spanish for Thinking of You? It sure sounds pretty! Lovely colors. Happy, caring card!

Well, you could have added one more challenge. Yesterday's challenge WT223 was to use text on the card. I love the way your little black ribbon and bow looks. The black matting and the little brads is very stunning.

Beautifully watercolored! Yes, I have colored several digital images with watercolors and had no trouble at all. Your card is soooo pretty and I love your color combo.
