Flower Patch Watercolor - AAA Cards

Watercolor fun - I just LOVE it!  It's one of my favorite

 things to do and AAA Cards Challenge is using for this 

week's challenge!  I'm so glad since there's so

 much you can do with it.

For this card, I inked up the Flower Patch stamp and then sprayed a fine 

mist of water on the stamp until the water began to run; then

 I stamped it on the card stock and let it dry.  After that, I did the

 next layer of my flower, and then the final, red part of the flower 

was heat embossed after the second layer dried.

It's not a completely clean technique - and that's ok.  Sometimes 

You've got to let go of your perfections when it comes 

to having fun.

So - I began a new job this week, and I gave this card to the

 Office Manager when I was thanking her for all the help she's

 been giving me while I adjust to the ways

 this new (to me) office does things. 

 She likes to make cards, so I hoped she would like it.  She did!  

She really seemed to enjoy getting a hand-stamped card.  Yay!

Go out there and give away your cards, too.  

And I'll look forward to seeing what you create 

(and have given away) at AAA Cards.

Thanks for stopping by ~~ Happy Stampin' and Scrappin'!
