this ended up being in 2 challenges. I started lookin in the inspiration challenge at mojolica ornaments and saw this little dish...http://www.sallymeekinsceramics.co.u...dish-379-p.asp.
I was looking for a b-day card idea for my daughter. I saw this strawberry dish and it remnded me that my daughter loves Monet...so I looked up more of that painting to kind of recreate it...I don't mind his work , but not my fav....but I thought I would try to re-create this for her, by using paints instead of inks..acrylic...some water with sponging and with the brush and the lillies with the brush.
then I was looking at our lovely featured stampers gallery and saw a perfect card to try and use its sketch for my painting. The double layer really caought my eye...Jazzed Tulips by Itsapassion at Splitcoaststampers neat Anne ,so I made the other layer for underneath my first one..just turned it the other way around...its a neat idea. then I just added my bow and the sentiment, and raised the middle ;ainting with foamies......thanks for visiting...:0)
