When I checked the challenge yesterday, it wasn’t up yet. But I read in a comment I think from Sabrina, “time in a bottle”. That stuck with me so when I got home I drew this bottle with a clock in it. Oh, and a fish and a flower. hehe
DidnÂ’t have time to color it yesterday but wanted to use the image I drew, so today I colored it with Prisma Pencils and gamsol. I just had to try MariLynnÂ’s smash technique so I painted over it with rubber cement to mask it.
On the smash technique, I used acrylic paint and a little water, closed the bag and ran my brayer over it to “smash” the paint. Opened the bag and laid my card down. Once dry I rubbed off the rubber cement, added some texture with a stencil and light molding paste and a few stampings of my go to mixed media stamp from Pam Carriker.
Put this all on a white card. Done. I wanted to put this in the f4a challenge but didnÂ’t know how this would work for a wedding card or anniversary card. heheÂ…Â…TFL :0)

What you've done for this challenge is just delightful, Cathy. I read about that technique but I'm not brave enough to try it. I love the colors and of course the time in the bottle concept. Perfectly executed and really mixed media personified.
