I recently bought a 4x6 blocked watercolour pad and this is my first project for Pamâs CAS challenge to make a Christmas creation. I had unmounted my old jumbo stamp wheels. I coloured the holly with tombow markers, spritzed, and then pressed it onto my wet watercolour paper. It created a fairly loose look, but when it dried, I went back in and intensified places with my markers and added in a blue background with my Watercolours in phtalo blue. My stamp was bought from eBay, and it says 1999 stamping up, but I have no clue what set it belongs with

This is such a beauty and you watercolored it perfectly. I like the blue background. You created such a fabulous CAS card.

Wow, just wow! I love your watercolor here and you make it sound so easy! I would have never thought to unmount those jumbo wheel stamps, but such a great idea! This card is just so perfect - you amaze me with your creativity in cardmaking!!

Your Watercolour Woodcut Holly card is absolutely stunning! The way you've used the Tombow markers and watercolors to create such a beautiful and loose effect is truly impressive. The blue background adds a lovely touch and really makes the holly pop.
