Good Morning.
I lost my mojo over the last few weeks. Guess that's what happens when you are super busy.
I am back today, with a simple card that celebrates the final days of summer and I am playing along with the challenge at Splitcoast.
I love inking my stamps using marker so I coloured directly onto my stamp using Memento markers, sprayed with water and stamped onto my watercolour paper. Love the watery, loose feel the water gives by blending the colour. The flowers looked a bit flat, so I took the tip of my markers and pressed it onto the wet watercolour paper. It left a lovely impression and gave the flower centres some definition. I inked up the sentiment and used my MISTI to get a deep, dark impression.
Adding my card to these challenges:

Supplies: stamps- Impression Obsession, TT/ Memento ink and markers/ mini mister/ watercolour paper/ MISTI

Sorry, I can't believe you have lost your mojo when you create such beautiful and sunny work.
This is really pretty, love the soft edges/watercolor look of the flowers, and those are my favorite colors!
Well, if you think you are losing your mojo, I think you are much mistaken. This is gorgeous. I love the colors and what a great way to create your card. I love the CAS design too.
Looks to me like your mojo is alive and well Karen!! Your card is beautiful!! I love the water color look and the center depression did add dimension, Awesome!!
Oh my! This card is so lovely. Amazing stamping and the colours are so lush. I'd say your mojo is alive and kicking.

Love the water colored effect you created with your markers on these pretty blooms, Karen! Beautiful color palette, too! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week at ATSM!
This is awesome and makes me so happy! This technique is why I'm sad that my water based markers are all drying up. You can't do this with copics!
Such a gorgeous CAS card. Thank you for sharing this with us over at Simply Papercraft. Sue DT xx
