Hermine Koster an amazingly talented card maker from Holland (incredible bister/brusho work) posted some cards recently which were made from a long piece of water colour paper painted with stripes of colour. https://herminesplace.wordpress.com/
I used Lyra polycrayon chalks and then added water to blend them, the behave like watercolour when you add water to them.
This is my take on Hermine's technique. Before adding colour to the fun JOFY flowers I removed the colour from stamped area by wetting and then using kitchen towel to pick up the colour, I also tried some bleach on another.
As soon as I removed as much of the colour as I could I used my zig pens and water colour pencils to add more colour.
I have 2 more from the 12 inch by 4.5 inch strip to post in the future. I hope you like the bold vibrant colours it was a lot of fun.
I forgot to mention I used my MISYI to re stamp the image after I coloured it, that way you always have dark outline around the stamp.

Some super work - I am going to try this too because I love the colors and the look. You always use the coolest mediums and I have to be careful looking at your work so I don't want to immediately go to Amazon and buy whatever you used! Lol! Many hugz
