This card is for Shannon's Hope You Can Cling To challenge today. The image I used is a digital image that I made for my online pencil class. I sized it to fill a full sheet of watercolor paper, and printed it in a very light grey on hot press watercolor paper. I watercolored the image with QoR paints and used table salt to add some texture to the background. To fulfill the challenge, I used drywall tape as a stencil around the outline of the flower. (There actually was some ink on the drywall tape that activated on the painting, so that's why I added more orange to this piece, to try to add some balance. Not sure I love how that looks, but there it is.

Dina this flower is so stunning. I love how you used it in so many great ways for these challenges and the coloring is amazing! The added salt technique and the drywall stenciling really finishes this card beautifully.
