"Loose" is not my style - it never has been and it never will be but in the spirit of the challenge I tried to let go and encourage the bleeds outside my blooms and leaves. The leaves felt okay but personally the flowers looked more like they had bad allergies and were sneezing their heads off . . . . So, I added the bold sentiment and extra spatters in hopes that it might look more like an explosion of joy rather than a sneezing fit - lol

You must have been a teacher's dream student. Always like how you take a challenge and recreate the technique even though it might not be your favorite. Personally, it is GORGEOUS! I had a problem with the shadowing of the tulips with the very dark color. Started to feel like I was overdoing the shadowing. Your tulips are beautiful with the hint of blue. Again, when you did the leaves, you nailed the shadowing and love the shape of them. Thanks for creating this beauty for us to enjoy.

I love the shapes of your leaves and think we are all loving them. The tulips are a pretty shape, also. So glad you did the challenge even if not liking the loose w/c style. You did a beautiful card and I do like your big sentiment.
