On my first page through the annual catalog I ignored this stamp set. I thought, when would I use that? However, the more I paged through the catty the more I realized I smiled every time I saw the set. Needless to say it was on my first order.
The card was created to participate in the TGIF Challenge #6, a Watercolor Challenge. I used the new Watercolor Wash background stamp. And then I used my Aqua Painter to color the grapes and the banner. I love how the leaves and the banner turned out. I need to work on coloring with darker colors. I used Old Olive, Blackberry Bliss and Soft Suede inks for my watercoloring.
It is a lot of fun to watercolor. I would recommend using the Whisper White Shimmery Paper for watercoloring.
I used the new Farmers Market DSP to frame the oval of grapes as well as line the envelope.
I hope you were inspired to watercolor or perhaps take a second look at the Fresh Market Stamp set. Truly a fun set to have in your stash.
Thanks for stopping by!
