Water Color Painting Card #2

I'm back with my 2nd card this week using a freehand watercolor painting. This is really easy to do. I just basically tapped my very wet brush with the paint directly onto the paper. I then spritzed just a tiny bit of water and let it dry before painting the trunk and branches.

I distressed the edges and sponged some ink to make it look vintage. The sentiment is from Penny Black's Foliage Fancy. I finish the card with a little bird sticker by Paper House.

I have two more cards using the same technique but with very different results. Challenges: Moxie Fab Trees, CASE this Sketch, colorQ, Addicted to Rubber Stamps, The Pink Elephant.
