MIX 487 Birthday
Added to Favorite

 I have two cards for MariLynn's MIX today: MIX487 “two-lips” by MariLynn at Splitcoaststampers

Seeing Sandie and Sue's great results from the chalk marbling I proposed yesterday, I gave it a go this morning. I don't know what has changed from the last time I did it - same chalks, that's for sure. This time I ended up with a lot of white and a small amount of marbling. Back upstairs to get some watercolour paper and some glossy card as Sue used, and try again. Still no lovely marbled effect - I only got this by dunking the paper right under the water. Anyway, it counts as a good background for mixed media. I added some chunky white EP, which I then flattened because the card was so warped I had to put it through the big shot. Wreath cut from green card. The blooms were in a Petri dish on my desk, I coloured and cut a whole bunch of them last week. Added the sentiment, a doodled border and some Liquid Pearls.

Your background may have not turned out how you would have liked or imagined but I think it is perfect. It has interest and design without overwhelming these beautifully colored flowers. Well done.

One never knows what one will get, like a box of chocolates. I think it's lovely, so nice that you could pick flowers right from your desk.

Love the collage feel to the base of the card Sabrina and a terrific wreath of flowers.
