I'm trying to go for a more loose watercolor look this time, it is a work in progress :-) I sponged in the sky first before inking up the stamp, spritzing with water and stamping onto watercolor card. The quality of the watercolor card makes a big difference, I'm sure some is totally fake, I cant get it to work at all! In the bin it goes.

This is awesome. Your bold colors really work. This should be framed!

Really lovely! Yes, I agree, the right paper is essential. Whatever you used here, you've come out with a really pretty sun-splashed scene. Great card!

Oh my, this is just amazing. I am a big fan of those Penny Black images, but it takes a special talent to make them look good IMO ~ you have certainly done that!

Stunning - just beautiful. I am taking classes and my teacher says only Arches, and I have learned the hard way that there is a good reason for this. Thank you for joining in with the CAS challenge.
