I love the Mix-Ability challenges and am trying to conquer it. Ha It'll take a while but give me an A for effort.
Today's challenge is: Make a simple design with markers or paint and then outline the shape with a fine black or white pen.
I made my tulip with modeling paste after doing a bit of pencil drawing and outlined with a fine marker in black. Then I colored over the modeling paste with Copics.
The background is made by putting down plastic canvas circles I bought at Hobby Lobby and then spray painted.

OOOOH, Benzi! I was very intimidated by the MIX challenge this week and haven't even tried to give it a whirl, but your creation is so inspiring. I have had those plastic canvas circles for years and never used them .. total inspired use of them on your pretty card!
