Here's one done with a Penny Black Brush Stroke Stamp.
I've used my MISTI to ink this stamp with Distress stains and markers.
After stamping each color, I moved the ink around with a water brush,
adding more ink as needed.
The sentiment is embossed with gold.

Wow, this is gorgeous. I didn't know you could stamp with Distress Stains. I have some and they aren't opened because I didn't know what to do with them. Now I do, thank you. Love the bright red color and it is so Christmasy.
Just beautiful Bonnie!
Absolutely GORGEOUS Bonnie!! The depth of color in your flower is SO BEAUTIFUL...the whole image just pops! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
You couldn't have picked a prettier flower to feature! Love this!!

Another card to be framed and popped on the wall then Bonnie, absolutely stunning, love the water colour effect and so creative X
This is such a classy, happy card that beautifully shouts Christmas. Your amazing water coloring and the choice of sentiment stamp that goes so well with this look makes this card stand out. Speaking of the sentiment stamp...it really caught my eye...love it. When I looked at your supplies used, I realized I have that PB set but that particular stamp is turned sideways so never noticed it(!) Sure will use it now...feel like I just got a gift.
Beautiful card and your water coloring is beautiful also. TFS
Your beautifully watercolored Amaryllis really pops, Bonnie. Love your Traditional Christmas color and soft background watercolor wash. TFS my friend..Merry Christmas to you and all the family. Hugs..Nancy
What a beautiful amaryllis! Your watercolouring is superb!
Great job with distress stains, Bonnie! I've tried this and had nothing but a mess! Kudos to you for a wonderful success! Love the painting and variation in color on this. I've tried so hard to grow these but not much success there either. Gorgeous card!
Your amaryllis is gorgeous, Bonnie! The shades of red and the highlights are exquisitely colored. And I love the soft pink-tinted wash in the background. The font style and the position of the gold heat-embossed sentiment is perfect!

A beautiful creation, love how you framed the flower with a stiched border frame. Thank you so much for sharing at Penny Black and More this month!
Your amaryllis is perfect. I love all the spots on the petals, they look so beautiful. The pink background perfectly highlights the beautiful flower.
