I got a set of Brushos not too long ago and was experimenting with the different colors - this is one of the backgrounds I ended up with. It immediately reminded me of a Monet painting. Not knowing what I wanted to do with it at the time I just set it aside. Emily's HYCCT challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to use this background. I paired it with Lotus flowers from Waffle Flower stamps that I colored with watered down MFT inks then fussy cut and popped up on dimensionals.
