More Watercolor Fun

My 2 boys are away at Summer camp for 2 weeks and this is the first of many cards that will be going out to them.  I love using my aqua painters to make fast and easy card fronts.  Below I've gone ahead and listed the supplies I used. 

This is a standard cut card 5 1/2"x4 1/4"

For Camera stamp with versa mark ink.  I used my stamperatus to make sure I got a crisp image and placement was perfect! I colored a pattern with my stampin write markers and then used my aqua painter to give it that watercolor look.

For my Waterfront card, I did something similar.  Only I didn't use my stamperatus.  I just winged it! I colored with stampin' write markers in the two colors and used my aqua painters.  On both cards, I dried with my heat tool.  For the trees, I made sure my watercolor was dry, went over it with my emboss buddy, stamped the trees and sun in versamark and embossed with gold.  Such a beautiful effect!
