I FILLED MY AQUA PAINTER WITH ALCOHOL AND USED REINKERS OF PEEK A BOO PEACH, WATERMELON WONDER AND PEAR PIZAZZ TO WATERCOLOR THESE SWEET POSIES. THIS IS SUCH A NEAT TECHNIQUE TO USE WHEN COLORING AND THE PAPER DOESN'T PILL - AND YOU CAN USE REGULAR WEIGHT CARDSTOCK! I USED THE SAME SENTIMENT STAMP I DID LAST WEEK. HAHA. I SOUND LIKE I DO WHEN I WEAR THE SAME OUTFIT ON MONDAY THAT I WORE ON SUNDAY TO CHURCH. LIKE ANYONE EXCEPT ME REALLY CARES. HAHA. SO EGOTISTICAL TO THINK THEY WOULD EVEN REMEMBER WHAT I WORE THE DAY BEFORE IF I HAPPENED TO RUN INTO A CHURCH FRIEND AT WORK. HAHA. I AM TIRED. CAN YOU TELL? GETTING A LITTLE PUNCHY HERE. NITE ALL, HAPPY TUESDAY EVERYONE AND HAPPY STAMPING!!

Karen, my friend, how can you take a set I struggle with and create a stunning card that looks so effortless! Your flowers are so beautifully colored--what a clever technique! I need to try that! I love the touches of lace and little flowers. I love this card!

I love how you used this set Karen!! I have never tried just using regular card stock with the aqua pen - I will try it now. Thanks for the tip. The lace is gorgeous!! Did I miss that as something new to SU?? I will definitely have to order some. Thanks for sharing your lovely card and the tips, and humor as always. :>)

Omg! I can't believe you used the same sentiment again! Haha! I love how you popped up certain parts of the branches of flowers. It gives your card such nice dimension. Stunning!
