I�m your Guest Hostess for this week. Beth is off camping with the Girls Scouts, spending some quality time with her daughter.
I looked through the list of different techniques for the challenges, and didn�t find anything for one of my favorite techniques. I have seen a number of threads recently on water coloring techniques v. Copic Markers. Now I will be the first to admit, that I use the Copic Markers and they are the first things I reach for. I don�t know why, except that they are handy and quick. With the conversations in other threads about watercolor crayons, pencils, etc., I have see little mention of water coloring with reinkers.
So this is my challenge for you today � WATERCOLOR WITH REINKERS. If you don�t have an assortment of reinkers, then you can squish your pads to the lids and pick your color up from the lids.
Please use keyword TLC174, when uploading your card.
If you notice that my card has the wrong keyword, -- well it's a bit early for me!!!!!! It's been corrected.
If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

Well I just noticed that I left off details on my card and have gone back to edit to add them. It's just too darn early for me this morning! Sorry for the mistakes and hopefully they will all catch up soon!
I have all of 3 re-inkers and they are all Staz-On, so I think I'll be using the squished pad method, LOL. Sounds like fun, never done it before. Better get a pack of baby wipes handy, though.
Thanks :-)
Thanks Sherry, I get to do this one today, what fun!

Great challenge!! I don't have the reinkers, but I saw someone the other day demonstrating the squishing the pads onto acetate instead of the lids. That looked interesting. So I may give that a try. Thanks for hostessing.
The gallery is gonna be filled with gorgeous work, for sure! Thanks for hosting Sherry!
