I am to blame for this fab group of cards.  I saw a cool idea with watercolor art on Pinterest that just sparked a card idea.  Lisa is just the best at understanding what I'm thinking and here it is....  Stamping and coloring images on top of book paper.  Maybe not totally a new idea, but man oh man.....  is this cool or what?  Just thank me by taking this class....  come on - you know you want to!
