I had fun watercoloring my Penny Black "Bejeweled" stamp with my Zig Markers then misting with water and stamping directly onto my watercolor paper. I found the best method was to use one color at a time then stamp. Because I was using my MISTI I could repeat each layer and get exact positioning. I started with the magenta's using the lighter colors first. After dry I went onto the next layer. I did the same with the greens. I Loved the Watercolor results.
I finished my card with the Memory Box Stitched Rectangle Die Cut and STAMPlorations "Live Love Laugh" sentiment, which I stamped several times using my MISTI.
What did we ever do without our MISTI's?
My card is for these challenges....
