Praying For You

I'm still working on trying to perfect my watercolor techniques - but I don't think they really need to be perfect.

I used my QVC watercolor markers for this card - applying them to a large clear block, spraying it with water and "smooshing" it onto watercolor paper.  I wanted to create grass and sky and used 2 colors of green and 2 colors of blue.  I had no idea how it was going to look...watercolor for me is hit or miss.  lol

After it dried, I stamped the trees and sentiment in dark brown ink, distressed the edges and adhered it to a Dark Chocolate cardstock card base.  I'm very happy with the way this turned out!
