Joan Ervin gave us a "challenging" challenge today...."water stamping". HERE is her tutorial. Seems easy enough, but I'm having a heck of a time getting the water stamping to REALLY show up. This time I used dye inks on the bg and a true "water mister" on the pine needles and this seemed to work better. If you look REALLY close, you can see some whitish needles. I think the bg pattern stamped with water in the lightest part of the image panel was not captured in the photo, but it is there...very faintly! Nothing like a REAL challenge to get one's mind gears going on a Monday morning! : )

Oh yes! The water stamping shows up, and your card is very pretty. It looks like you sponged less ink on your paper than I did, and I like the softer look of yours.
