Yes, that's right: Today I bring you an image that looks like a kindergartner colored it in their 5 minutes of free time.
I'm still trying to learn how to watercolor, as evidenced by today's card. I need to ask you to cut me some slack because I don't seem to be a quick study.
Thank you, Eager Beaver, for the beautiful sand paper RAK. I would have ended up cheating today if it weren't for your paper. I didn't have anything close to the color sand. How ever did you know? Hugs and Love, Ellen.
Anyway, I did manage to use today's colors of red, green and sand colors. No cheating for me today!

We can be our own worst critics....MS. Anne this is stunning!!!!!! I sure hope you had fun, and will keep using this medium. It will become addictive. That is a wonderful stamp with the script behind the flower. Love, love every inch of this card. Fav'd

Nothing to sell short here, Anne. Your coloring is lovely and the shades of green you achieved on your foliage is terrific! Wonderful framing to set your main panel off so nicely.

This is a beautiful, fabulous card!!! I would never say it looks like a kindergarden coloring, unless they were one of the very very talented ones. I love the script behind your roses. Your framing and piercing is awesome!! You created a lovely card Anne!! :>)

WOW, you were a bit hard on yourself, Anne! I loved the shading on the leaves along with the various hues and again, my favorite deep red color! Kindergartener?? Not! Most of us struggle with watercolor. This one is superb!

You are much too hard on yourself, my sweet friend. I especially like all those pretty shades of green in your leaves. It looks beautiful. I love the roses too, Your pretty details like the paper piercing and the pretty layering makes this a masterpiece worth framing.
