Finally got a chance to play along in this week's color challenge. My card is very simple. The image is from Hero Arts, and I embossed in white EP. I then went back and watercolored the flowers using TH Distress Inks and a water brush. I only used one shade of pink and kept going over the flowers to shade darker in areas.
Thanks so much for taking a closer look I appreciate it!

Beautiful card, Barb, and the watercoloring of your magnolia blossoms is so beautifully done. Really striking. The dark bg embossed panel gives a wonderful contrast.

I cannot figure this beauty OUT!! It looks like you embossed on silver cardstock - the flowers are stunning, the whole card knocks my SOCKS off and may just be my favorite in the entire gallery!!
