I used the wrong ink as it did not work well watercoloring over, nor stamping onto the watercolor paper. I had to go back after the watercolors were dry and add the details to the azaleas and leaves.
My inspiration piece was: http://www.comuseum.com/painting/flo...s-in-painting/

Okay, Ms. Liz, I have to say I'm sorry your initial idea caused you so much time and effort, but the result ... oh the result is totally lovely. I like the 'modern' edge you brought out, too.

Love the textured look your WC paper and angst brought to your work! The original stamping may not have done what you wanted it to but your final product is splendid! I love that hot pink against the greys in the background. Super card!

No matter what your original intent was for this card, it came out wonderful. I like how the pink pops, with the darker details and bg keeping it subdued.
