My submission for the TLC challenge.
I would like to try this technique again using different paints and different paper with a new sanding block. The results were not as I had hoped but life got in the way to making a new acrylic distress panel. The acrylic paint did not sand off as evenly or as well as I had hoped. Fun thechnique!

It does take a little time wanting to get most of the paint off, and I have found it easier when I leave the painted piece in the (open) embossing folder for the sanding. I hope you'll try again when you have more time , but I think this looks beautiful, soft and almost like a light dusting of snow. I really like that slight out-of-the-box cutting on the flowers, too.
I think it looks great! I will have to try this technique. I like Sabrina’s tip, too. You used this technique to make a very pretty card, Sharon. I pray everything is better for you today.

I love the way that background supports your colourful array of flowers! It reminds me of pewter. Your sentiment tag is perfect for a 'sending' sentiment - like it is on a package. TFS

I think your acrylic panel is lovely. It did take more to sand than I anticipated and I want to try it again sometime as well. Your flowers are beautiful and I like that you have that portion where it is cut out, that is a fun effect.
