Yes, these are watercolored. I stamped the MS butterfly using Starzon jet black and then watercolored both the butterflies and traced and faded the blue in the background. THEN I added the magic shine. I painted glaze all over the butterflies then poured those little clear mini beads on them. The flash on my camera makes them glow, but they have a real neat textural look in RL. The center sentiment panel is matted on both orange and blue. I distressed the edges of the bright yellow and the blue, but left the orange alone. Four square brads finish off the sentiment panel. So yes, these really are watercolored/ painted...

Wow, those really shine! But as you say, the flash can do marvelous thigns. I bet that is just stunning. The watercolouring is a really neat look around the butterflies.
