Here is my take on this weeks Muse card...I didn't have any textured card stock so I used an embossing folder to create some texture.

Scrap Africa Mood Board Challenge no.73

I really loved the colors on the mood board over at Scrap Africa....I tried to incorporate as many as I could into my background but I also like the first image on the mood board...it reminded me of stacking so I tried to get that same feel with my stencil...I used basic water colors for multiple layers then I used distress ink with the stencil....I couldn't help but splash some plain water at the end...I love the splotches it leaves!

Words and Paintery April

When I first looked at the new challenge over at Words and Paintery I read the words and thought of all the new spring flowers that are just starting to bloom out in front of my house...then I looked at the colors and thought of the beautiful Sunflowers my neighbor has every year.... so that's what I based my project on...

 I didn't realize when my daughter moved she happened to snag some of my paints took them with her :( she took all my yellows! but I was lucky I still has some distress in and water colors!I used coffee filters to create my flower and some glass beads as the center...I used a bronze embossing powder on the drywall tape it turned out way better than I thought it would!

I love the look of the inlaid die technique that Anita used for this weeks Muse Challenge. I don't own many dies but I thought this leafy one would look good.
