CC659 = Hello Honey, Tempting Turquoise, Pear Pizzazz, Rose red
dessert = watercolor
Quickest way I know to watercolor an image is to use the watercolor resist technique. The image was colored with reinkers and an aqua brush. The turquoise was used in the image panel itself, but I went with a duller version of the color for the framing....it just looked better.

Oh, Sallie, this is so beautiful! I love how you've "woven" the colors in this lovely holly sprig and framed it! Stunning watercoloring as always, my friend! Hugs!
