Anne continues as the April hostess for the CCEE Stampers Challenge. This is her challenge for the week.......
One layer cards are always easy to mail. Create a one layer card with a water color panel or background.
I so admire the watercolor creations other stampers have been doing lately. I try and fail. So this week I decided to try a smaller area. I first masked the part of the panel that I wanted to remain white. I then used a Tim Holtz watercolor crayon along with water and a brush to create the background on the watercolor paper background.
I then stamped and embossed the tree and sentiment. I must admit that I really (really) like the result. Maybe now I can again give a try to some of the other watercolor techniques. Small steps.....small steps......hahaha.....!!!!
Be sure to visit the CCEE Blog to see the other fabulous one layer watercolored creations. I am sure we will all be inspired.......this team has some real talent!!!!

Love the simplicity and sereneness of this card. The white border makes the card even more striking.
And I also really (really) like your card! I love all the white space around the edges, too.
I love your out-of-the-box embossed tree on your wonderful watercolor background! What a great one layer design, Joanne!
