The Wonder of Watercolor challenge - Moxie Fab

Who doesn't want to play with watercolor? And then to be challenged again by Kath to come up with something.. well, can't let that pass me by!  If you want to join in, here is the link. Actually, playing with inks and water is becoming one of my favorite techniques in card-making - so much fun and I love the results. Sometimes you can have an instant card with a couple of stamps and water color.



So this card was born from a mistake - well the two projects I made didn't turn out how I wanted, so two mistakes make this right as I just put the circle and butterfly punch into my watercolored projects! I painted the panel bundled sage before attaching my circles and butterflies to the card. Of course everybody knows what 'papillons' means, right?

Thank you, Cath, love your challenges!
