I made so many mistakes on this card! It was supposed to use gel medium and an inkjet transfer sheet. The gel medium dried out before I could even place the transfer onto it. That didn't really matter because my printer chewed up the only transfer sheet I had! So...I just printed out the image on a piece of cardstock and distressed it. The circles were supposed to be 1-1/2" but I only had a 1-3/4" inch punch. It would have looked much better with the smaller circles, but that's they way today has been going!

Computer Tricks for Cards -- Lesson 6 and 7
I love the watercolor technique taught for this card. It's something I'll use again. The watercoloring is subtle but if you look real close you can see the orange color. I painted the watercolor onto a piece of rubber shelf liner and then pressed it against the watercolor paper. Unfortunately, I glued the front down a bit crooked so I'll use it as a sample.
