A combined challenge card using Beate's Watercolor Wash technique and watercoloring with reinkers. Both techniques use reinkers so I am double covered for Sherry's TLC174 challenge. Thanks Sherry for covering for our dedicated Beth. I also used Emily's color combo of W Wasabi, Taken with Teal and white. My gf's all now have "Lovely as a Tree" and have made some beautiful cards, so I wanted to join them in the fun :-) I will add the sentiment later. It may even end up being a Xmas card. BTW, this is a 5 1/4" sq. card. Enjoy, Nancy

This is beautiful, Nancy! I really like the blue with it, especially all the blue that's showing in the leaves you cut out. It's like looking through a window at the peaceful scene outside. Nice!!
Absolutely gorgeous, Nancy! I LOVE the fabulous watercolor wash behind the trees and those leaves are to die for! There's just something so elegant about the oval shape and your double window opening is beautiful! This is one of the best sets ever, IMO!!

Oh-h-h, I can't tell if it is two ovals layered, or an oval-shaped window. Either way, it's great. I love how you echoed the polka dot BG paper with the polka dot ribbon.
