I have been AWOL for a few weeks while helping my sister...boy have I missed looking at and commenting on the cards in the gallery. It was nice to "have to" make a card for this challenge. However, I discovered that the saying "use it or loose it" is actually true. I really strugled with this card. This is a set from my sister. It has 7 stamps that you can arrange however you like. I used 5 of the stamps, used the MISTI to arrange and stamp them, then colored the images with watercolors. That was a mistake...I was already having trouble with this card, so it was not a good idea to choose a medium that is difficult for me like watercolors. Next, I used grey prisma pencils to add shadows. I arranged the lace, pubched leaves, and cheese cloth died with green distress ink. Hopefully, I will get back to making cards and commenting in tge gallery.

This is soooo pretty..those watercolored flowers are amazing...I really like how you did the extra shading on this..it really creates a soft look. This whole card begs for closer inspection to take it all in! SO glad to see you in the gallery today
