Since I'm still so completely in love with Magenta's newest product, "Nuance" (a powdered, water-soluble die), I chose to use that for my cards.
With the first card, I masked off part of the watercolor panel, and sprinkled Nuance over the bottom right half. I sprayed pearly water (1/4 Perfect Pearls powder to 2 oz water) over the Nuance, and it seemed a little dark, so I added more yellow. I have not really made mud yet with these beautiful, vibrant colors, they seem to mix very well together.
After the Nuance dried, I stamped the Magenta stamp "Background" all over the colored part of the panel, using Versafine Onyx Black ink. I then stamped the sentiment from "Handwritten Quotes" at an angle. I put some Nuance into a palette, and activated it by spraying with pearly water, and used that to flick dots onto the white part of the panel.
I matted the watercolor panel with So Silk Beauty Pink card stock.

On my next card, I chose a different color scheme. I tried masking off a horizontal strip, and the colors leaked a lot underneath the masking (I used post-it tape instead of masking paper). When I took the masking off, I liked how it looked, so I went with it. Keep taking chances, good advice!
