So, when I was watching this weeks candle watercoloring challenge tutorial Linda shared my thought in the back of my mind was. this could be really cool with diecut candles. So, I dug out this old die that is you know really thin. I have never tried to color it before but, cutting it from watercolor paper worked well for that part of it. This did take a bit longer to do than just drawing a candle and starting to paint. I think its going to take a while to get that bokeh down but, so far I am enjoying messing around with it. I do have a few process shots on the blog here. If you'd like the link to this tutorial its in the challenge thread here. tfl.

Beautiful cards with the die cut and you got lots of bokeh. Wish I had time to do more of these but I hope today to work on your upcoming challenge.

Like when a challenge has us thinking diverse ways of using some of the artist's ideas. Two very pretty cards that look completely different using the same die. Wonderful job on these Stacy. TFS
