Our challenge this week was to do something in watercolor, which is one of my very favorite mediums! My challenge was to get-it-done! LOL I saw this gorgeous Holly Berry House stamp at the Cricut Swarm, and knew that I wanted to color it, but I ran around so much, that it litereally took me the three days to sit still long enough to finish it ~ (and it's not that hard to do!!!) I do love how it turned out, though. These medallion stamps can be left as is, or can be stamped multiple times, and be layered, which is really awesome...
I love to do watercoloring with pencils and a watercolor brush, or baby oil gel. I find that it gives me a soft, blended look, but with lots of control. How do you like to do your watercolors?? Show us on Cuttlebug Challenge this week! Remember that you have until Tuesday night to post yours to Mr. Linky. Check out what the rest of the Design Team did to Inspire YOU!!! Go...Create...Be Joyful
