It’s raining (again) and cold and damp. I was glad I got my walk in this morning. Go ME….I am back up to walking four miles a day. I wondered if I would ever be able to do that again…but anyway it’s raining now and no walking in the rain. It was a good day to stamp and finish up several cards that just needed a tweak here and there. I saw this on Laura’s blog and just knew I wanted to try it. She used a die and must have sponged in her color, she didn’t say the technique she used but that’s what it looks like to my eye. I used water color. It was a challenge but fun to do. Maybe next time it will be a little bit neater but hey’; it IS water color after all, it’s supposed to be a bit soft around the edges. I appreciate Laura’s inspiration. Using OLD SU stamps (of course) all my SU stamps are old. 
Michaels water color paper and distress markers. I softly stamped each balloon in a very pale coordinating color and then outlined them with my distress markers and pulled the ink in. The sentiment is from MFT and I stacked it three times. I love how this turned out. So fun to play and see things come to life. Have yourself a fun day. If you can, make it a stamping day.
Those balloons are gorgeous. I love the ombre look of your greeting. Fun card all around!
