Our challenge today was to use, balmy blue, night of navy, and just jade. I took a piece of water color paper and spritzed it with water then drew the ink across the paper. Then I spritzed it again. I started at the top with balmy blue, then navy and finally just jade. I love the movement of the ink when it was spritzed. The navy divided and showed a light purple color. The green almost looks like grass from spritzing with water.
I stamped the lighthouse and birds in black ink. Lastly I added the sentiment. The sentiment is Designed by Krista Thomas, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator www.RegalStamping.com She has configured sentiments to fit into the Many Messages Die.

I love the background you created, Sue, especially the color variation from the navy ink! A perfect landscape on which to place a lighthouse. Love the sentiment, too!

Fabulous technique for the challenge colors. The green does look like a grassy area with blades growing upward. So cool. The lighthouse is a perfect image for this background. Great card!
