Tie Dye Watercolors


I've had a  busy working week and I been doing some multi-tasking when it comes to my daily ICAD assignment.  I try to visualize what I want to while I'm getting ready for work and then I run into my craft room and execute my idea as quickly as possible.  This morning...Tie Dye popped into my head while I was brushing my teeth. Don't know what made the vision happen but I ran to the craft room, grabbed the watercolors and had this done in about 5 minutes.  For such a simple card I actually am happy with it.  In the past I would have had trouble with muddiness, but I'm learning patience (letting the paper dry before adding the next color...using the iron to hurry it along) and I have also learned that when working with the index cards you cannot add too many layers of color before the paper breaks down and everything looks gray.
