I started by doing a watercolor using Distress paint and stains straight out of the dauber bottle. Ran the stains and white paint across the paper, then when it was fully covered, misted with water and used my water pen to smooth the colors. This was my second attempt. The first time I tried to just leave white space for the skyline, but it bled. Laying down the white, acted as a resist. Dried with my heat gun and stamped. I think this works fine for a masculine card.

What a fabulous technique, Priscilla and thanks for the tip on the white! This one just pops out of the gallery in the thumbnail! Your stamping on watercolor paper is SO perfect! I can never get a clean image on that paper! Love the triple layers on this!

Wow - I love how you did your coloring of the sky across the panels and only stamped on the bottom. This came out so fabulous and beautiful Priscilla. Lovely and creative. Hugz
