Today's IC is beautiful...this is what I chose: https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/289708188533463923/
I also combined a few (!) other challenges: WT was to use bubble wrap, the WCW white rose (wonderful artist), the MIX to use alcohol inks (they're there, the very first layer of the background piece, very earth toned) and the F4A-use your gel plate. The ai piece was alcohol inks on the plate and then I brayered the acrylic paint on it and used that to get the paint on the bubble wrap.
As far as the WCW goes, I'm pretty happy with this. I sketched the rose myself, much easier than I thought it would be, once I got the center going. I also used a few watercolor pencils in the center because there was not enough contrast with the rest of the rose. The artist is amazing and so good at pulling out the colors at the center, even though it's a white rose. Thanks for all these challenges!!!!!

Oh goodness, this is amazing! You took the video and created a beautiful original painting. Love the sketching and depth. Clever how you did the leaves. Your background brings out the shadows of the white rose. TFS Fav'd
What a pretty card, Jean! I'm really intrigued by your lovely rose! Awesome job! I need to check out the WCW, although watercolor isn't my strong suit at all!

Awesome rose and wonderful sketching. The bubblewrap background makes it pop.
