Sending Hugs

Having a little fun play time for the

CAS Mix Up Challenge and for the first one of the year

we are to do loose water colouring.

Details Here

I thought I would try something a little different 

by die cutting my images with acetate and inking

but was too thick so were then cut

with watercolour paper. While they were still together

I wet the paper and sprinked with Lindy's Magical's

in Alpine Ice Rose, Cathedral Pines Green

and Nuvo Cherry Bomb Shimmer Powder. 

After I had taken them out

I sponged through the negative cuts to use as a background, 

adding more colour to the die cut flowers as needed.

I then added some Distress Grit Paste through

Tim's Speckles stencil before adding the flowers

 in a different order to the front using the 

back watercolouring as a shadow.

Here's a close up. I had a hard time getting a clear photo

of the whole card.

Hope this qualifies as loose watercolouring.

Added a sentiment from a CB tag die

and tied a pink cotton bow.

Attached to card base to complete.

My Mix is - loose watercolouring, sponging, stencilling,

die cutting, stamping.

Hoping to make a more traditional 

loose water colouring card before the end of this challenge.

I am having so much fun.

Thanks for a fabulous Challenge.
