This is for the challenge to use paint in your card, I used acrylic paint with crackle medium to get my antique looking frame. You have to use 2 colors of paint, I used buttercup as the base with espresso on top. I wanted it to look like a shabby old frame with the paint peeling off and it worked. I watercolored the lemon from sun Ripened 2 and added a handwritten sentiment. The background is apricot with the lemon stamped in apricot for a watermark effect, for some reason the color looks more like mustard in the photo. TFL!
