MIX107, CT0215, Oriental Poppy

Photo Details

Poster: Benzi

MIX107-Sentiment Mash-Up----Create a new sentiment from at least two sources and use at least two mediums.

CT0215-For the Love of Friendship-----There were several interpretations to choose from. I chose to feature a special sentiment about friendship.

My background color was made with ink from Tombow Markers and water along with Tim Holtz Distress Paint and Stain (listed below).

I watercolored the poppy using ink from Tombow Markers mixed with water for blending.

I also used two stencils with embossing paste and stamped a flourish.
