Watercolored a sunflower from the Sunflower Power digi stamp at Power Poppy. There is no white on this card, what looks white on this, is actually a pale powder blue color (including the background of the technique piece).
Printed the line image a faint yellow color on my Epson workforce printer (ink is waterproof, and copic proof!) on 140lb Fabriano Artistico Extra White Hot Pressed Water Color paper (isn't that a mouthful!!, my tablet of paper is 5"x7").
Watercolored with Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolors, with #4 Round Black Velvet Silver Brush, accented with colored pencil.
Dark brown cardstock is Early Espresso (SU!), Light powder blue card stock is from American Crafts Spring collection, brown DSP is from a DCWV 6x12 stack (that I bought for like $2 a while back).
Sentiment is from SSS Color and Sunshine, stamped in Early Espresso.

Your watercoloring is so beautiful on this lovely card. And the sketch is wonderful - one of my favorite EVER. I will use this versatile sketch over and over. Especially since I got so much inspiration from cards that others have made. I have a lot of long narrow scrap strips, which will work great on this sketch. I'll try to get a card made in the next few days ... and posted.
