Watercolor makes every single card unique. Even when my results inspire me to make a duplicate, it is impossible. I may come close, but each is still a one-of-a-kind. What are your thoughts?

I misted my glossy panel with water and added ink beginning from the lightest to the darkest hue. I dabbed with my paper towel if needed and/or sprayed more water. I then covered the panel with some cling wrap, scrunching it here and there. I then set it off to the side to air dry. It is important to not apply heat and to be patient.
Once it was completely dry, I carefully removed the plastic wrap and marveled at the beautiful background.
I then stamped my image and sentiment directly onto it. 
The tutorial that I somewhat followed is found at JoZart. I did not use any starch on mine because I did not have any on hand.
