Just squeaking in under the wire here for the CAS watercolor: birthday Challenge. I think this qualifies as I used water, and diluted ink, and diluted white paint splattering for a water color look. Cut a section of cs to use about half my card front and stamped and embossed the flowers. Sponged on DI, then splattered with water, and dabbed with paper towel. Then I added some shading in with copics - at the base of the petals and leaves - and when satisfied, splattered with diluted white acrylic paint and watered down black ink. Attached to card front along with a thin strip of black and stamped sentiment.

Your background is just gorgeous. I love your colors and the added specks.

So pretty - love the colours and design. I was planning to pull out that stamp later as I have several birthday cards to make and I really love its modern but feminine look.
