Becky gives us some of the loveliest color combinations. Here's today's palette:
Blushing Bride
Rich Razzleberry
Mossy Meadow
When I watercolor, I leave my cards pretty plain...so I skipped dessert.
Using SU reinkers and an aqua brush, I watercolored the image panel. The brown that you see in the flower's center was made by mixing the Razzleberry and the Mossy. It gives a wonderful shade of dark brown that has much more "life" than if I had used a brown reinker.

Your watercoloring is gorgeous Sallie!! I agree that embossing would take away from it. Very pretty and natural the way you created the brown. Such a lovely sight!!

This looks like a beautifully matted piece of artwork in a gallery! The kind that would help to sell an item in a magazine, too! Super amazing work in these pretty colors, Sallie~
