BLUE FLORAL FANTASY

My card today fits several challenges - CAS Watercolour (something blue) and Just Us Girls (three tones of a color).  Will also enter it in Virginia's Show and Share.

 
I began by smooshing a piece of watercolor paper with three shades of watercolors which were on my glass mat.  I just kept going until it looked like I wanted.  Also did the same with some gray and silver colors.  Die cut these with Altenew's Fantasy Floral dies.  The base of my card was stenciled in a tweed pattern with white texture paste.  Put it all together with a few sequins and done.  Another "any occasion" card for my stash.
 
 
Thanks for dropping by today and love to read your kind comments.

  3. So pretty Betty. The blue flower with it's grey leaves looks great against the texture on the background.
