I've really been getting into watching watercolor videos on You Tube. My favorite it Jennifer McGuire and I'm really enjoying the videos that the owner of W Plus 9 is doing, too. Kristina Werner is good, too. I bought a set a Gelatos awhile back with a 40% off coupon. And I scored big when Blitsy had a great sale on Distress Inks - next I want the markers. So anyway, I've been dabbling and playing and thought it would be a great twist. I'm not good at this, but I do love it. It's fun.
This week's sponsor is Creative Classes Online (used to be My Creative Classroom). Maybe they'll have a watercolor class.
My card features Distress Inks colors Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Peeled Paint and a touch of Milled Lavendar. The stamps are from Sweet n Sassy Stamps (flowers) and some old greetings by Stampin' Up!. I embossed onto vellum. I think my card feels serene.
I do hope you'll join us this week. See you there!
7 Encouraging Thoughts:
great use of your watercolors - Online Card Classes which are by Jennifer McGuire and Kristine Werner had a great watercolor classs - you can still purchase it - well worth the money which is nominal. Keep playing and enjoying

Beautiful card Melissa, I love the blend of colours you used and your flowers are so pretty.
Gorgeous!! I love the vellum & sequins, and those are my favourite DI to play with :)
Beautiful! Nice score on the inks...the Markers are at Blitsy right now ;)
Beautiful watercolor background! Pretty flower image and I love the added sequins! I love watercoloring also, just need more playtime!
Quite the contrary - I think you're very good at this and your card proves it! I love the blended blues & greens on the image, and the background is just beautiful and reminds me of soothing waters! Beautiful!!
