Put your thinking cap on

Water color for background, a stencil & stamping. That's always a recipe for good fun.


I made the background with distress ink (crushed olive) and water color (Prussian blue) on a wet water color paper. Then some reverse stenciling with some mud brown and a tree stencil. However, the reverse stenciling can only be done once, twice tops as it is already the remnants of a color. Never mind - the cool thing about water color is that all backgrounds look totally different.

Then I stamped some background.

And found some nice words.

  4. Another fantastic creation! One of my favorite things about your art is to see how you combine just the perfect image with the perfect words! Your art has depth, but it also often has such a fantastic sense of wit and humor. It's always a pleasure to see your projects and I'm so glad that you support our Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenges!
