Mary's colors are beautiful for this week's challenge. Didn't have the exact colors.....my flowers look orange, but they are more on the pink side. Colored with reinkers. Deembossed the oval and added score lines. TFL Off to take a granddaughter to band lessons.

You never fail to make a "WOW" card Linda! Your painting is incredible! What rich color you achieved with reinkers and your shading is impeccable! Love the spatter and the wonderful scoring in your background. This is SO beautiful!

Ooooh, Linda, another wow watercolor! So lovely - and you are so good at knowing how to watercoloring outside the image just the right amount to keep the overall look open and light. Love it.

Jaw dropping, eye popping gorgeous! The watercolor is stunning in itself, and the embossing is the icing on the cake. This should be hanging on the wall!

From the picture they look so real these pretty flowers do. Wonderful coloring. Love the sprinkles of blue over them and the clever embossing. I at first was trying to figure out how you did the 2 embossings then read you scored them...clever...did that work out well. Beautiful...TFS..:0)

My heart just stopped, Mrs. TV Personality. I don't know how to tell you in all the right words how gorgeous this card is. You are blessed with a talent that you've brought full cycle. You've learned how to skillfully apply color to paper and create the most overwhelmingly beautiful cards. This is no exception, my friend. Gorgeous, gorgeous and even more gorgeous.
