This is for today's TREEHOUSE THURSDAY CHALLENGE # 059 - Watercoloring. This week Gloria choose a fun technique of watercoloring for the challenge. I can not remember the last time I used watercoloring to color. I had a blast making this. I was in the mood to make something other than a card so I looked over at my mounds of supplies on my unloved shelve and spyed this mini mail box. Well you should have smelt the rubber buring in my head. Ideas were going everywhere. I guess I should have put corks in my ears so that the ideas would not escape before I could use them. LOL.
I decided not to use any dp to alter the outside since I liked the color that it already was. I used some craft cs punched with my beach border punch. My images are digital and they are from "Sea Babies" that was released this month and "Fun in the Sun" that was released a couple of months ago. Both sets are digital sets from TREEHOUSE STAMPS DIGITAL LINE.
This is also for a DARE TO GET DIRTY CHALLENGE presented by LODICHICK.
Off to work now, I wish I could make money playing upstairs in my cave so I could stay home all day but I have to work so I can play (insert pout here).
