Default Why did I wait so long???

So I've had a pad of watercolor paper sitting around for almost 2 yrs *gasp*, and I finally used it. I repeat, why did I wait so long??? :rolleyes: I love it!!! I probably won't watercolor on anything else now. It is so much easier, and gives me the exact watercolor look I've been trying to achieve! I am still working on my card, but I will post a link here when I finish it.
Woohoo! I have a new favorite 'toy'!!

Love it also. When you run out try different types so you see the effect of the textures. I prefer bristol (smooth) but all have different uses and some brands are better than others.

I just bought some. I bought the cheap stuff thinking it would be OK. Well it is not. It is horrible. I figured it is 120 lb cold press (as someone recommended to me). It's going in DD's art box and I am buying a better brand.

Your card is so beautiful. I will shoot up a prayer for your mom that her ordeal is over and she has no reoccurances.
Blessings.
