Watercolor Bleed was the second technique in the reinker list that I hadn't tried out. I often use watercolour washes, but hadn't used them for colouring an embossed image.
This is also for the current ODBD s-p-r-i-n-g challenge.
A2 base, papers are Basic Grey Piccadilly.
I used the Bird & Butterfly Labels, stamped on watercolour paper with Versafine black and embossed with the last dregs of clear EP - got to find the large container which I use to top up my little one! I misted it and used reinkers dropped on with a wet brush - peeled paint, spiced marmalade, worn lipstick, tumbled glass, broken china. I used the matching Labels 18, both layers are popped up on foam.
Verse is from Scripture Collection 1, and I added Cuttlegbug Vintage corners with pearls.

I am very happy to see another card in the ways to use it challenge made by you. Your card is beautiful. The colors draw the eye and make the viewer feel as though they are in the scene. I also like the swirlly diecuts.

This is really pretty, great job with the technique, your sky is gorgeous! I worked on a piece for an hour and just couldn't get anything that I liked, it just looks like a toddler colored my beautiful Bird of Paradise image, lol!

The sky background you created with your reinkers is gorgeous! Love the sentiment, the papers, and the corner accent! All combine to make a another beautiful card, Sabrina!
