When you've lost your desire to stamp because you've run out of inspiration, I've found that participating in challenges is a sure way to become excited about your final products again. Thanks to the following challenges: Pals Paper Arts, Card Patterns and StampinB's. I've truly forgotten the great effects you can get with watercolor paper and ink. Love to know what you think.

I think that your watercolor print is gorgeous. I love the effect of inking your stamp and adding water, the effect is often stunning as your beautiful card shows. I think that your result is perfect. I love how this technique can give you a different look each and every time.
Thanks so much for playing along and I hope that you will have time to play in our little challenge again.

Your watercoloring is just wonderful. I struggle with watercoloring, but some people make it look so easy. The shading in your flowers is very effective. And I love the ribbon twisting down the side. Very nice card. So glad you decided to play with us.
