2. Add a drop of your reinkers to the Clear Block—you’ll use this as your palette for watercoloring.  
3. Use the following colors:
1. Crushed Curry refill for the Sunflower petals.  While still wet, add touches of Pumpkin Pie for depth.
2. Cajun Craze for center of flower.
3. Balmy Blue for background.
4. Let dry.  
5. Place panel in Stamparatus, and stamp your sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  You may need several impressions to get the image dark enough.
6. Assemble your card as shown.
