I Thought of You Today

This started out as something I thought would be fairly quick and easy - and it was once I figured out how to work around a problem.  If you follow Brian King, you'll recognize this card.  When I saw it I loved the color combination and the clean look.  My problem, my Calypso Coral Stampin' Blends have seen better days and I realized I don't yet have Mossy Meadow.

Solution, watercolor paper with Aqua Painters and ink pads!  I think it came out very pretty, if I do say so myself.

Recipe:
Mossy Meadow - 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored and folded at 4 1/4"
Whisper White - 4" x 5 1/4"
Petal Pink - 3 3/4" x 5" - Run through the Subtle Embossing Folder
Petal Pink - Die Cut with Petals and More Thinlits Die
Whisper White - Die Cut with Petals and More Thinlits Die

Stamps:  Climbing Roses and Petal Palette

Ink: Memento Black (sentiment), StazOn Black (for watercoloring), Calypso Coral, Mossy Meadow

Inside is Whisper White - 5 1/4" x 4" - stamped with StazOn Black and quickly painted with Aqua Painters and ink from the inside of the stamp pads.  I say quickly because if you use too much water on the basic cardstock, the paper will be damaged.  A small area like these little flowers worked well.

Thank you for looking in today!  Happy Saturday!
