Love the combination of blues on CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #185.  On a piece of acetate I brushed the three closest blues with the Zig Clean Colour watercolour brushes, added some Pearl Ex and spritzed with water.   Using Bristol paper I smooshed dried and re-smooshed to get the watercolour background.  I cut Penny Black’s Framed Fern die out of watercolour paper and threaded the blue beads to add interest.  That’s how the CASology watercolour theme all came together.

Hope you enjoy, thanks for stopping by 😀

  3. That watercolour technique creates such a wonderful, dramatic background for that crisp, white fern frond. That creatively woven beading adds the perfect touch also. Lovely to have you join us at CASology this week, Jo!
