This card is about as CAS as it comes, but there is a reason for that. I was intrigued by this week's Make It Monday to create defined watercolors. I actually think Erin's tutorial to use an aqua painter to apply watercolor ink directly to the stamp is brilliant. I love how the watercolors bled a bit when I stamped them, and then edging it again in ink defined everything. I figured this flower would be my practice round, but it turned out so pretty that I decided to not only use it but make it the focal point of my card. I finished it off with a sentiment that will allow me to use this card for any occasion...love those kinds of cards. This beautiful color palette was inspired by this week's ColourQ Challenge.
