Colorful Hexagons

here is the second set of cards I made for my kids' teachers earlier this week, just didn't have time to post :)

I used hexagon background stamp from Hero Arts, stamped it with Versamark on watercolor paper, embossed with detailed with EP and then smeared inks all over straight from the pad.

Messy fun - watercolor paper is forgiving and if something seemed to dark I sprayed it lightly with water and wiped of  some color with paper towel.
Sentiments are just random.. probably each from a different set.

I'm entering them into the following challenges:
Crazy 4 Challenges - Hexagons
Sweet Stampin'  - Not Cute
C.R.A.F.T Challenge - Thank You Teacher
Dutch Dare Care Challenge - photo inspiration - I was inspired by all the fun colors in the picture
