So, when the watercolor wednesday challenges started I had received the speckled egg oxide ink pad in the mail about that same time. So I made two backgrounds ( this is the second) the first I set aside because, I could not think of a single stamp to add over the colors. and this one I liked. ( I used a plastic baggie to move the ink) and I cut it with a rectangle die. Today I watched the video for adding the unexpected color to something so, these trees/frame were watercolored with some Mission Gold watercolors the colors are actually green, blue & orange ( blue and orange are not tree colors to me haha) so this has quite a bit of water on it. and then I set this aside and laughed when the colors looked nearly the same as the second background. So, I popped it up on foam dots and wound the ric rac across the bottom. ( I am going to add more glue dots to that in a few) and it will probably be a Birthday card headed out soon. There is a closer look at the painted diecut on the blog here. Thanks for this challenge Kia, & tfl.

I just bought this new oxide color yesterday, so seeing it here looks especially pretty. Looks like the other blue might be faded jeans or stormy sky? No matter. I love this tree card and how you framed it!
