Day 3 at Altenew Academy

Hi there:

When I saw Kelly's lesson for day three - it scared the you know what out of me.  Loosey Goosey watercoloring with Distress Oxide Inks...oh help me now. Ya I have control issues. I like watercoloring but I want embossed lines so stuff stays where its supposed to be. So this lesson is WAY out of my comfort zone - and it should be. How can I learn if I don't try the out of my comfort zone techniques?



I actually had fun once I let myself go.  Ya!  I might even make more in this style!  And again this is supposed to be one layer wonders --- I just like mounting my one layer on a colored card-base.

Thanks for coming by and indulging my homework show.

  1. This is gorgeous! I love the colors and the big floral motif! I also like to mount a watercolored piece on a folded card, much more flat that way. I tried watercoloring with DO last night for a bit, it was much simpler than yours!!

  2. Beautiful Cat! I'm sorry I've not been around much! Thank you for your sweet comment. For some reason I haven't been getting e-mail notifications of comments from Blogger? It was purely by accident I discovered a load of unpublished comments when I was looking for something else on my blog??
