Hosted by Angie (ohmypaper!)this week. THANK YOU ANGIE & THANK YOU DINA for the video!
It took me a bit to do this as I didn't have a stamp like Dina's, & wanting to get it right! My perfectionism taking over! ;) So, I used a stamp set by WPlus 9 & did A LOT of masking to get the same look. (I've been eye-balling those background stamps for sometime... guess I waited too long! LOL) I found I would get into the painting, & paint right over where I didn't want to paint! LOL Like I would have liked to have ONE MORE light blue flower, but my brush got away from me! LOL I also added leaves, as Dina suggested in the video, & it DOES add such a nice touch with the touches of green! I gave this a 2 in difficulty because the brush seems to take over! You have to be REALLY FOCUSED!!! HARD TO DO sometimes! LOL ;) This actually reminds me of a dress I have. The dress is BEAUTIFUL- sheer fabric & flowing, & my daughter helped pick it out with me, when she was younger. All she had to say was, "Go ahead & get it mom!" So, it will go to her for her weekly card! ;) HOPE YOU LIKE!!! ;)

You really did such a great job on this challenge! I watched her video and really was impressed. I haven't done any water coloring. I like your colors and how you added some leaves. Sometimes we are our own worst critics! I would have probably gone through about a dozen pieces before I got one I liked! Miss your blog! Have a great week! Stay safe!

What? I thought I commented on your beautiful card. I read your post sometime and must have gotten distracted and left the computer. Great colors and I love how you said your brush got away with you. Sometimes, my water gets away with me and I have to be careful.....all a learning process.

You created a fantastic card using this technique! I believe you really did the technique as it was it was presented....just not watercoloring a bg and then coloring objects on it. Your brilliant, bright colors are spectacular....really caught my eye.

First you really created a beautiful bg stamp with your masking. You have a very creative eye. You took Dina's technique and delivered it to a tee. Love the blue you chose for this vibrant gorgeous card. Enjoyed your story about your daughter and the dress. Happy you joined us for this week's challenge, and adding this beauty. Fav'd
