Maura gave us colors this week that are very refreshing.....reminds me of spring. Wanted to make a thank-you card for a generous gift of stamps that Just for Fun rubber stamps gave away as a prize for the recent HYCCT drive. I was lucky enough to be the recipient of this prize. Let me tell you they are awesome! Last week's inspiration challenge, Audrie gave us a board of decorated envelopes. Love how it completes a card....shows the recipient they are special. Started by stamping the image on water color paper and the envelope. Using the same medium...reinkers on both papers. The water color takes any amount of water unlike the envelope. Very sparingly used water only on the tip of the brush to color the envelope. Added the border to match the flowers. Addressed and doodled some letters. TFL
