Clean and Simple in Water Spritzing

 Second Post today.  I made this CAS card for several challenges.  I have not made a card using the water spritzing technique in some time but I always love creating the watercolor look especially using a watercolor paper to create.  I have seen several cardmakers using this look lately and I had the itch to do again.
 
I found this rubber stamp "Watercolor Daisy"  from Hampton Art  that I had long forgotten that I even had.  I colored the stamp directly with Memento markers Bamboo Leaves, Potter's Clay and Cantaloupe, gave it a water spritz and stamped on the watercolor paper.  I did fill in the flower a bit with more coloring. The sentiment used is from Creative Clear Stamp stamped in Potter's Clay.  I distressed the edge of the paper with Distress Ink Wild Honey and placed on an Orange Card stock from stash.

Challenges:
Alphabet Challenge Blog: O is for one word sentiment.
Less Is More: Use Rubber Stamp
Our Creative Corner: Forgotten Things-used a stamp that I forgot I even had.
Papertake Weekly Challenge: Anything Goes
Clear It Out Challenge: Theme: Thank You / Stash: use something you have been hanging on to---been hoarding my watercolor paper as I have just a few sheets left in the tablet.

I enjoy all your comments. Thank you. Theresa
