The CAS challenge of the lovely color combination of pink, white and celery made me think of this stamp right away. Unfortunately it took three tries in different media for me to be happy with it...
Stamped the Lily in Archival Sepia and colored with inkpads and aquapainter. Cut and mounted on a deckled oval nestie. Made the BG by rapping a wet brush over the tips of watercolor pencils for a spatter effect. PT - 1
Thanks so much for looking and have a peaceful day.

Excellent CAS card, and I especially enjoy the way the light is playing across the card front. Reminds me of sunlight on the water.

Rapping a wet brush over a watercolor pencil? Wow, that sounds like it might be fun and stress-reducing. I will have to get a watercolor pencil and try it because I could use some stress-release!!! This card is so pretty Marie. I love the image and the colors plus splatter paper. I think the use of that nestie with the flower was a perfect idea! You iz so smart Sis!
