Julia(artystamper) gave us an interesting color combination for the CC:
Basic Grey
Chocolate Chip
Gumball Green
I did not do the dessert option of creating my own stamped bg paper.
I used my watercolors, but first I off-stamped the leaves with Basic Gray, then misted with water and THEN stamped onto my watercolor paper. I tried to vary the values. I then came back in with my watercolor paints to add color. The green bg DP is from the DSP of the current InColors and it is the pale side of one of the Gumball Green sheets. I thought it looked better than the bold green.....it's Gumball, just a lighter value.

Love it! Totally balanced and absolutely charming. You offset your lovely watercolor image perfectly with the choice of background and the dark button and pale twine.
