Ever since I tried the Distress Watercolor technique from Tim Holtz in the Compendium of Curiosities III book, I've been hooked. It's a fairly easy technique, even if you're not a pro artist. The trick is knowing where to shade and where to lighten. After some practice, you figure it out pretty quickly. While I'm not claiming to be a pro at it myself, I think I get it.
I played around a while, designing some birthday cards using a few Stampers Anonymous blueprint stamp sets and Graphic 45 Mother Goose papers and came away pretty satisfied with them. I thought "I enjoy this so much, I'd love to teach others this fun technique."
