Enjay's Challenge - Water colour

My buddie Nicola has started setting challenges on her blog and the first one was just too good to miss, the theme is 'watercolour'. I love using my watercolour paints and I've had these Wendie Rhodes stamps for ages - they were calling out for some water colour.
I'm really pleased with the results, I think the colours work really well with the butterfly because it's wings are like flames or autumn leaves.
I sprayed some sticky finkers gold ink on the background. It looks great but the only way I could get it to show was at this funny angle.

I really love this unmounted rubber stamp set, you get all sorts of butterflies and the verse too! They've only got two left so you better hurry if you want one.

Thanks for a fab challenge Nicola.
