I noticed a card Dawn Burnworth made to honor Leslie Miller (tutorial) as she leaves Flourishes and and I decided that would be fun, soooo here it is. This is also in honor of Leslie, a person with super talent.
I got out my Tombow markers, water, watercolor paper, and brush and away I went. I'm using a Flourishes stamp set called A Year in Flowers 2 (May Iris). This is for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Blog Challenge FTTC134. You can use water images, water elements, do watercoloring, water mist, or color wash. Just be sure water is included.

Great job with water coloring! I've never been brave enough to do a whole card ... very impressive, my friend! Love those irises!
Dang, from shorts to long sleeves and pants in one day. Bring back some heat!
Wow this is stunning!! Love those irises and your water coloring is superb! I have a lot of irises in my garden. Every year I am so happy to see them begin to bloom and so sad to see them go. These will last a lifetime.

Benzi, this is so beautiful. Love the watercoloring...wow is this ever gorgeous. Thanks for joining us at Flourishes Timeless Tuesday. Thanks for your wonderful comments on my blog.
This is so pretty and I really should get my Tombows out and use them too! Copics seem to have taken first spot in the coloring field lately, but getting back to our roots always feels good again! Nicely done - love that sky!
Still raining here in PA.......and it's in the forecast until Monday now!! I don't think we've seen the sun in over a week!
Oh totally stunning!
Thank you for joining us at Charisma Cardz this week and good luck!
Oh do I love to watercolor. So does Leslie. This is so pretty Brenda. You did a fantastic job. Sorry I have not visited lately. Will be back soon.
GORGEOUS!!! I love to see your watercolor painting, and I've definitely missed it. So good to see you painting again, Benzi. Don't be a stranger!!!! (to your paintbrushes, I mean!!)
Beautiful. I've been a little afraid to use my Tombows for fear of the card running if someone gets a drop of water on it. Do you know if they do or am I being completely unrealistic? Can you recommend a tutorial?
nice job with the coloring,love how u have done the shading it looks so pretty.
What a beautiful card! Your sky is gorgeous. Thank you for joining us at Gingerloft. Good luck; Hugs

a lovely card, thank you for sharing wit hthe creative card crew.
Wowsers, what a fabulous sky! Wish ours looked like that instead of grim and cloudy! Beautiful flowers ... we shifted a lot of plants about our garden last year and I've just realised after seeing your card that our Irises didn't survive it!
Brenda, this is WOW! Perfect way to use the markers and water....gorgeous card GF!!! Hugs ~S~

Gorgeous sky detailing and card design, Brenda! Thanks so much for playing Flourishes FTTC water challenge!
Fabulous scene of a morning/evening sky with the pretty irises (one of my fave flowers). I know Leslie must've loved this!
