todays challenge is called "splatter it up". After stamping image, I watercoloured it and then using an old toothbrush and basic gray reinker, I splattered onto image....
Thanks for taking a peek... Hope you like it...

I do like it - even if it's too close to the weather we are actually experiencing today. You could take a photo out of the window and if it wasn't blurred because of the gale force winds blowing the branches, it would look like this. I'm impressed with what you achieve with a toothbrush - it's my least successful way of spattering!! I'm sure I did it as a child - but now, it just doesn't work for me.

Not only are we neighbors today, Alice, but we also used a bird image on our cards! I love the neutral gray used for your beautiful bird.....such a pretty card with a pop of green & splatters!

What a pretty card..I love the gray and I have to say your tiny splatters are just right on this..it's not always easy to do that. You and your toothbrush did well ;)
