I stamped in black ink onto mixed media paper and heat embossed with clear. Then watercoloured the image using Distress Inks (listed below in the supplies). I added a wash of diluted Faded Jeans at the end. In hindsight, I should have watercoloured the background first or sponged. It would have been easier. :)
To finish, I splattered with diluted white pigment ink. Once the splatters were dry, I stamped a sentiment (Festive Snippets - Penny Black) in black ink.
Ink: Black (Momento); Distress Inks: Candied Apple, Carved Pumpkin, Wild Honey, Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs, Rusty Hinge, Faded Jeans (Tim Holtz); White Pigment ink (SU!)

I lovelove this image and your coloring looks fabulous to me! You've shown it in a lovely wintry light. In fact, you made me look up the stamp again and add it to my wish list. I never feel bad about being excessive with Penny Black. Thanks, Loll!
How sweet is this image, love your watercolouring, nothing wrong there! :)
Loll, don't rethink any of the choices you've made here - LOve your water-y wash of blue and those berries look amazing! This image landed right into a shopping cart today - can't wait to play!

Great card. Love the image and the colors. I don't think you need to change anything.
