This is for TLC85 to create a Monet typed card using a wet dauber & watercolor crayons. I instantly thought of trying to create a water lily scene. I love the look that I got except I wish that I had not lined the lily's up in such a perfect line and staggered them more. Nothing in nature is in a line. I'm really happy with the look. I only used the crayons on the two step flower stamps. The rest I did with my little watercolor minis fern stamp and my artist pen. I hope this still counts for the challenge. I had a great time doing this as it has been quite a while since I did a green scene with hand sketched trees.
