 Hello Again...

There was last nights early morning card and this one made this afternoon. So it feels like two different days...but the calendar disagrees!

Its been quite some time since I took an adventure making a card...did something uncomfortable.  For me its water colors...the little blips of color that do magic when wet.  Its been quite a bit since I did some unrestrained coloring.

I used Altenews Starry Flowers, and my oft neglected watercolors to come up with this card:

This card is going to the gallery at Altenew's June Inspiration Challenge.

Inspiration Challenge 2024 06 Option 1  

When is the last time you pushed yourself or did a technique that was a bit uncomfortable?

Thanks for visiting.

Terrific card, your water coloring looks fabulous, Cat! That's a stressful technique for me, maybe I need to practice more!

Turned out to be a beauty, Cat! My recent lighthouse scene was a stretch for me. Yep--LITTLE scene, but still a stretch--haha!
