CAS Watercolour Challenge January 2018 & Seize the Birthday Anything Goes


It seems like forever since I have done the CAS Watercolour Challenge
Don't think I entered last month.


I decided to also enter this into STB

Memory Box Sentiment Iris water colored with Distress Inks.  It took me three tries to get it right.
Tried my Ziggs, then Inktense Pencils and then this one.  I embossed the outline in white and dropped in the color on a petal with water.
Cottage Cutz Oval Scallop Dies
Clear Shimmer Spray


Thanks for stopping by.

Such a gorgeous iris, Linda ... the depth you've achieved with the colouring is fantastic ... and the colour is so striking (it's the pantone colour for 2018!). Just lovely! Anita :)
