or I should have said, arrrrggghhhh! I had my card nearly finished when I saw smudges all around my main image! How did that happen? So, I tried my technique, I meant to do that! I should have remembered, never try to fix it! lol It got worse and worse until I had to throw it in the trash and start over. That's where the arghhhhhh comes in.
So, I stamped the image with black craft ink and clear embossed. I watercolored with markers scribbled onto my stamp a ma jig mat and a watercolor brush. A lousy water color brush I might add! I haven't found my good ones since the move. For all the handicaps I had this morning, I think it turned out pretty well.
I am trying ribbon treatments that have less bulk so I can afford to mail these things. lol This ribbon is just looped a few times. I think it works. What do you think?

Karen, did you forget...there are no mistakes, only embellishment opportunities! Love what you did with the lace bg, and the ribbon!!

This turned out so beautiful despite the mishap! I hate when that happens, though! Wonderful coloring of the pretty image! I love the ribbon treatment!
