Happy Birthday! MIM and Retro!

 Happy Wednesday!  I spent some time in my crafty space cleaning yesterday.  Once it was almost all clean, inspiration hit.   I have a card to share today, but my crafty space now needs cleaning again.


I decided to play along with this week's Papertrey's Make It Monday.  This week is about Defined Watercolors.  I did the technique on the stamped  background panel.  I slightly modified how I did the 
watercolor part.  I used the actual ink itself and wet it, then stamped it.  Next, I went back over the image with the ink on the outside edges for the defined portion of the watercolors part.  I am using this week's Retro Sketch Challenge for the card.  I am also playing along with Moxie Fab World: Birthday Creations and  A Passion for Papertrey's Birthday Challenge!




As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Betty
