Today's card is for the TLC on SCS. It's always fun to try a new technique and to be honest I have never tried this wet watercolouring technique. One thing I did notice is that to get the most effective "look" you have to spray and then stamp immediately. You will get the most bleeding that way. In my case, by the time I stamped the third one the paper was already drying. Ah, it's a live and learn thing. I am happy with how it turned out.

Beautiful job on the technique! Love the paper you've chosen!
Beautiful card! I really enjoy reading your blog; you have such a great sense of humor and a wonderful stamping style.
I love how these flowers look like Texas Bluebonnets!
To solve the problem of your paper drying out, try misting your stamp after inking it, instead of your paper.
Gorgeous card. Love the paper you chose for it! I will never give up my Petal Prints! It's such a wonderful set!
