Wendy gave us a challenge to use blue or pink on our cards....they are not to be baby cards. Yesterday while flower shopping, I picked up some colored calla lilies. I have white, but not the colored. The weather has been so nice this week spring must be right around the corner. I took and stamped the image and using my pencils water colored the image. The way I used the pencils....scribbled on a scrap paper and added water making puddles of colors. TFL

This is breathtakingly beautiful!!! A card I'm excited and proud to have in my favorites. You've totally inspired me, I HAVE to try this!!! Not that what I do will look like this, but what an ideal to aspire to reach--wow! This is art, I hope you will send this card to someone who will KEEP it! Really, it should be framed!

Linda, this is stunning. And using your pencils that way is a great way to watercolor. I did that with my Inktense pencils - I felt I had a little more control while getting use to them. Embossing a nice edge really adds a beautiful touch to this piece as well. I enjoy watercolor above anything else so this card really appeals to me. What a beautiful card!
