This is for the F4A214 (yes, there really are circles under all that mess), and the MIX61 to make a momochromatic card. All the layers were die cut from the resplendent rectangle dies. The flowers were made by first mixing gesso with light blue acrylic paint and watering down with water. Painted over a page from a book (it was for blueberry muffins...the only time I use cookbooks is for art projects). Stamped the heartfelt creations stamp, sponged inka gold teal on the edges and glued down. Die cut flourishes from the blue print paper and assembled. Another very busy card. Even though the colors are right, I refrained from adding the CAS for this week onto the key words...definitely not clean and simple.

I am laughing so hard about the cookbook! I can relate! I think this is just beautiful. I love the variations of blue you achieved. Your flowers add excellent balance to the card, and those layers of diecuts... WOW! Thanks so much for playing my Mix-Ability challenge!
