Birthday: Ragged Daisy Blessings

May your troubles be less and your blessings be more is one of my favorite Irish blessings.  I used both watercolor powder and watercolor with stamps on this card.  I sprinkled the powder on one side of the card and spritzed.  I used inked stamps on the other side, but I placed them in the spritzed water before I stamped them.  I have quite a bit of white still showing, which created an entirely new look to my watercoloring.

Retirement: Feathers with Watercolor Background

Aaron has a coworker that is moving to a different department.  We used the stamp Watercolor Wash.  I am not sure I will use it as intended, but it gave a good beginning base for the water coloring.
