Hi, it is Shirley aka Wannabcre8tive posting today. It is my week to be your challenge host for the Free 4 All Challenge.
This week I am challenging you to make a card with watercoloring. You can do real watercoloring or faux. Since I have been babysitting my grandson this week and I am not good at watercoloring, I have done two faux watercolor cards by using a brush stroke stamp.

Went with SU's Watercolor Minis set that I just got at our local thrift store- love this set! Added some scalloped edges, and a marbled panel from my stamping buddies, along with a super sentiment- dedicated to my DD who has been visiting. Here's Beautiful Blessing

Well, my desk was cleaned during the making of this card I spilled my cup of water and had to wipe down my whole desk. But it never touched the card - yay! This was a fun challenge - thank you for posting this!
This is my second card for this challenge. I thought I'd try the free hand water coloring. I think I need to stick to stamping and water coloring the image. Here's my attempt: Watercolor flowers (F4A32 by ~CA~ - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

This was actually a card that resulted from a different challenge this past week. However I really like that I could use something that worked out for both.
