I had so much fun with this month's set and dies that I ended up creating bunch of cards. I used my MISTI to stamp bunch using different color combinations. Once I had everything set up in my MISTI tools (I used multiples, so I didn't need to remove any stamps) it went like a breeze.
Also, there is a video below showing you a fun technique how you can get watercolored look with your layering stamps. Scroll down to watch and see all the samples I came up with!
