It's Been Forever .......

 




            Starting with water color paper ...  I broke out my Winton and Newton water colors which I haven't had out in a while.  Mounting that onto my clipboard ...  I stack painted all the blues and greens.  I dried that very well.  I then applied Heidi Swapp Metallic Texture Paste in silver.  I dried that very well too then gave the piece a bit of a trim.
            From black card stock, I ran a piece through my cuttlebug using a swirled folder.   I added the watercolor piece off set to the right.
            Using velum, I stamped the sentiment (Hampton Arts) with black StazOn. I wrapped that around the front panel and then mounted it all onto a top fold black card stock base.








I would like to add this to the following challenges if I may please:
My Favorite Things: Sketch













Addicted to Stamps: CAS
Mod Squad: NO WHITE
Crafty Gals: Use your favorite thing: my watercolors
Water Cooler Wednesday: CAS w/sparkle
Paper Players: have the sentiment a focal point.

Thank you so very much
Have a fantastic day
