Hello friends!
I am sharing a card with my favorite coloring medium--watercolors!
To be honest, when I water-colored this card, I thought it turned into a disaster....
What happened was I decided to add grey/black to the background. Without thinking much... I did!!
And oh boy, I regretted right away and thought... what was I thinking!!?
Once that panic and regretful feeling set in, I just kept at it and added more and more yellow to the mix. Before you know it...it was NOT THAT bad. LOL!

I am actually happy that I added that tint of black/grey to the mix!! It's the unexpected element that makes the card interesting. The optimistic side of me would say so.
The take-away lesson: "Never fear or panic! You've got to live on the edge and try something new and different once in a while." Now I think this card has character, thanks to the dark edges and vintage vibe!
Thanks for stopping by!

A happy accident that turned out beautifully! Don't you love that?
Actually, that touch of darkness just makes your flower/leaf colors pop. It creates that contrast that I always find so elusive to do. Really is beautiful.
As usual, so beautiful!
