This is my submission for today's challenge. I love to color. Crayons were a little too thick for this stamp, so I did it in watercolors. The background for the stamp was done with a round embossed spellbinder and was originally white. But I was afraid the white background was too much for the paler colors, so I used light blue and light pink chalk to soften the it and make it kind of blend. Then I put it on a light blue background with a semi-lacy corner punch and a bright yellow background to help it pop. Thanks for the great challenge. Everyone should color every day - it brings out the kid in you. TFL

This is such a pretty card!! Your watercoloring and choice of colors is beautiful!! I like the spellbinder, and how you lightly colored that; I tend to leave mine white and it often looks too stark. Your corners are also a nice detail. Great job Rita!!
