A card for todays Color Challenge, Sallie gave the pretty colours of Always Artichoke, Marina Mist and Pistachio Pudding - I have none of these, so I resorted to watercolours. After doing the sky, I blotted with a paper towel to make the clouds, then using masking fluid on them before spattering with paint. Added in some lines for grass and a few sponged, punched butterflies.

Breathtakingly beautiful background! Those are the most amazing clouds and the speckles add so much interest to your beautiful scene. Love the sponged flutterbys, too! TFS!
