For today's CAS challenge, a WATER theme. I did a watercolor bg by adding ink to an acrylic block and spraying it with water before stamping. I then spritzed it water, lay a paper towel over it to lift up some of the color, and finished by adding sequins. Think I should have left off the ribbon and kept it completely clean but I've never used this sunny yellow ribbon and it matched so well.

I kinda like the bright ribbon with the two colors of ink! The sequins are a wonderful addition.

Beautiful! Gorgeous yellows - fantastic water color! I love this technique using the acrylic block. I've only done it once - you've inspired me to try it again.

Wow, Bridget! This is so vibrant and uplifting especially with the sentiment you chose! I love the idea of lifting off color so thanks for sharing that too!
