This is the card I made to honor this week Featured Stamper, Dockside (Ann). Congratulations, Ann, you have a fabulous gallery! The card I chose to CASE is here:
I kept the poppy theme, although I used a different image, and colored with watercolors, plus Distress Markers and Spectrum Noir pens. I changed the greeting (if you look closely you can see it below the image. It shows up fine IRL) and layout.
Ana, I hope you like it, and as always, thanks for looking!

Oh wow! What splendid water colouring! You have captured that poppy red just right. This card really pops out of the gallery at you. I love it! If I have a New Year's resolution (and you will have to look hard to find it) it will be to work at my water colouring more. I especially want to try this 'lineless' technique like you have here. Very inspirational. Thank you so much for adding to the pleasure of my FS week!

Jody, your poppy is beautifully watercolored. It is so vibrant and you achieved so much depth with your various shades. It looks like a painting. Gorgeous work of art.

Fantastic watercoloring, great layout. That flower just stands out so beautifully on this card. I love the spritzes as well. You did a fantastic job CASing this beauty.
