I love this decorative paper and for this card I layered it onto a deep terracotta card front. I used watercolour pencils to colour this stamped image. I just loosely coloured in the different elements of the image using several different colours of crayons. Afterwards, I used a wet paintbrush to reconstitute the colour and blend them nicely. I have not used watercolour pencils this way before and I think it works pretty well. I do not have a large selection of colours but they worked quite well for this image. I will have to try mixing colours next time I use them. Convenient when you don't want a wet palette - like at a class or on a trip. I layered my image on gray, mounted it over the ribbon which I layered over my card front and glued the ends to the inside of the card. I added a small colour printed greeting which I layered on darker gray and mounted to the card front using 3D foam tape.
