Hi! Flowers are one of my very favorite things to sketch, stamp, or paint so I had to do another card for today`s Free 4 All Challenge. We are celebrating May Day. Read about it here. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I used Bazzill textured CS for my base. I used European Watercolor Paper for my painting and matted it with PTI Hawaiin Shores.Several of you have expressed interest in my watercolor pictures. I will write up a very simple how to later today on my blog. This is just the way I go about it most of the time. No wrong or rights here. And you would be surprised at how easy these are to do. Thanks for looking and have a fabulous Friday!
For more chit chat please visit me at http://paper-rose-petals.blogspot.com/
I love when you stop by!!

Dear Judi~
This card is so exciting! I love the color combinations, and my first thought was water colors. (The Bahamas have water that comes in those colors! ) Gorgeous! When I really looked at the shape, with just the imagination--no rules, or expectations, I saw a dancer or possibly two. I see a large hand fan up toward the top right, and a big layered skirt wrapped aroud her legs. The darker section on the mid-left looks, imo, to be her body.
Looking at it as it is...is so serene...and I still get a spark of excitement in it! I absolutely love it. I hope my interpretation of my imagination is not being taken as an insult, if I am wrong. I am just thoroughly enjoying your work. I haven't seen any of the others. I LOVE this one! I hope you realize that my intent is good and full of love.
