A Bister thank you WT527

Photo Details

Poster: Bailmac

I had so much fun making this! Done for two challenges. Our WT today is a watercolored bg and also for Mountain Plains Crafters challenge-a Spingtime appreciation creation...check it out
http://www.mountainplainscrafters2.blogspot.com

I chose blue, green and natural pigments. Experimenting with the Bisters, I wet my paper before using a fine paintbrush to tap color onto the paper. Then using a water mister over a foot from my paper, I spritzed. I am loving them. The sentiment was punched and then edges dragged through island indigo. After creating the bg, I stamped the flowers in versamark, embossed in brown and used pearlescent watercolors. 3 blue rhinestones added to finish it off.
