The sentiments are from the very useful So Grateful - love how
easy it is to mix and match the words to say thank you in different ways.

I used ink to watercolor the backgrounds, leaving an unpainted area so
the popped up leaves would stand out in contrast. This involves brushing
the whole rectangular area with water before brushing in the ink loosely
in the bottom left two thirds. As the ink/paint spreads you can add in a
bit more here and there for more depth of color.

After stamping the sentiments in Color Box Black
Licorice ink, I added a few matching sequins to finish.

Bridget, I've enjoyed catching up with you! (Gosh, that puppy is like a toy, he's so darn adorable!!) Your set of watercolor cards for autumn are outstanding! I'm pinning this as inspiration as I struggle with this technique and I think these are so inspirational!! Hugs, Darnell
