TLC185 Autumn Thanks

Photo Details
Poster: flaxychick

 Created for Challenge TLC185.

I changed the technique a little bit and used irridescent watercolor paint (http://www.mftstamps.com/catalog/pro...roducts_id=250) to color the back of my acetate - it worked great!! I used an orange, gold and green paint and applied it in streaks, then ran the acetate through my cuttlebug with the d'vine swirls folder.

The image is new this month from MFTstamps.com - it's called "Rosemary". I also used the irridescent paint for the orange flowers on the image.

The letters are from a basic grey alphabet sheet. I colored them with copics first, but it was too much of a match to the background so I went over it with a black Spica glitter pen .

Thanks for looking!

Gosh, I wouldn't have expected watercolour to coat the acetate, I never thought of trying my H2Os. You got a fabulous result with them!
