Yes, that's right: Today I bring you an image that looks like a kindergartner colored it in their 5 minutes of free time.
I'm still trying to learn how to watercolor, as evidenced by today's card. I need to ask you to cut me some slack because I don't seem to be a quick study.
Thank you, Eager Beaver, for the beautiful sand paper RAK. I would have ended up cheating today if it weren't for your paper. I didn't have anything close to the color sand. How ever did you know? Hugs and Love, Ellen.
Anyway, I did manage to use today's colors of red, green and sand colors. No cheating for me today!

Anne, Anne, Anne.... I was just marveling at your wonderful water coloring and I was thinking that you are so multi talented, when I read your write up. You must be referring to someone else when you mentioned struggling with watercoloring. This is soooo pretty, and I am joining quite a few other SCS s by adding it to my favs.

oh my goodness, anne, this is beautiful and you've done a fabulous job of watercolouring!! i especially love the leaves since green is my favourite colour and you've made them look so natural. i think red is the most difficult colour to watercolour with; trying to make sure it's vivid enough is something i always struggle with but yours is amazing! you should be proud!! i agree with the others - there's no way this is kindergarten level.

Gorgeous watercolored roses sweet Anne! I love your color combo and butterfly framing too. You are making me want to get my very neglected H2O's. TFS my friend. Hugs, Nancy

No kindergartners here!! This is spectacular water coloring. It's perfectly imperfect as WC should be. Very classy and sophisticated. It's just beautiful, Anne. To honor your work I posted a card just for you tonight in my gallery!! :-)
