I have this beautiful card being shared on the Impression Obsession blog today, made with a couple of new Impression Obsession stamps. I stamped Rosie the Love Angel in black StazOn ink onto 140lb cotton watercolor paper and painted the image with various colors of Stampin' Up re-inkers. I love how rich the colors ended up being, and yet still have the look of a watercolor painting. I added a bit of glitter to her wings, shoes, and underneath the stamped sentiment for extra sparkle and shine.
I feel like I've been making Christmas cards for months! It feels good to use something different!

This is a beautiful watercolored card. Your water coloring is the BEST! What a precious stamp and sentiment, too!
