Out of 7 cards that I make, one is planned and 6 are accidents, so the MIX 126 was perfect. First, I will point out that tgere are stripes here, so this really does count for the WT 537. The bird silhouettes are obvious, but I used the edges that I trimmed off the main panel to make 3 vertical and 3 horizontal stripes along the edges. As I mentioned, I have been packing up and trying to sell my sister's stuff since she is moving into an assisted living place. This was not exactly planned, and she was a hoarder, so it is one huge job. Luckily, some of thecstuff she bought and never used was art stuff.... she said to keep whatever I wanted. I don't have a craft room, so I really cannot keep too much. I did keep 5 mysterious bottles of "watercolor wash" by sargent arts... I have never heard of it, and there were no directions on the bottle. I was just testing out the colors and dropped some puddles of different colors on a 9x12 piece of heavy weight watercolor paper. Since I like intense colors I let it sit and tilted the paper around to let the colors run. This was my "what if" part of the card. Finally, I blended the colors into the white areas of the paper. Any time I have water soluble mediums, I always splatter it with water which is one of my fav looks. The WT challenge really gave my the ideas for the rest of the card. TFL, Francie
