I made this card for the VSN challenge called Serigraph Technique. Karen tasked crafters to use this technique with flowers as the background. Initially, I shuddered at the thought of actually using my brayer. I resigned myself to try and chose colors that reminded me of a pool. Now that I am finished, the colors and texture remind me of Monet's works. Please don't mistake that as a comparison between myself and the Master!
I used the Pals Paper Arts sketch to flesh out my card, as I thought the sketch worked really well to show off the technique!
Thanks for looking!

WOWZA! This is gorgeous! I love what you did w/ this set and these colors. This CAS design really showcases the bg. One of my favorites! I know what you mean about using the brayer too!!!
Thanks for taking time to play my challenge.

This is really lovely. I love the scallop detail and the rhinestones across the bottom.
