I have had this floral stamp for a while now and have also been messing around with teaching my self to watercolor so, you bet this technique caught my eye... and I had to give it a whirl. I wasn't really sure what colors to do these flowers or how to arrange them so, I did a couple different versions. tfl.

This is LOVELY, Stacy. You have done to no-line technique beautifully. I admire you for teaching yourself watercoloring. It is not the easiest of mediums, IMO.....a whole different approach from oils or acrylics. I love the happy orange color of this card and your flowers are lovely.

Oh my, another beautiful card, Stacy! Your coloring is top-notch! It appears to me that you don't need any teaching since you're arriving at beautiful outcomes!!

You've done a Beautiful job!!! Your colors are Outstanding! This caught my eye right away. I Love it!!!!! I'd always thought I'd like to try watercolors, but never really got around to doing it. You've really got the touch. I'll have to set my mind to trying it. It's always to me seemed like such a gentle soft kind of medium. Sort of ethereal maybe. I guess I did do some when I was very little in my coloring books because I remember being irritated because it bled all the way through several pages behind it. But this is WAY beyond that. Very Lovely! tfs
