CAS Watercolour Challenge

Good morning... 
I have a card I did for The CAS watercolour Challenge to share...


Using smooshed distress inks


And a very old TH stamp. I really like these colours together - Peeled Paint and Faded Jeans


I'm just not sure that it's CAS enough, but you know what it's like with smooshing, you kinda get carried away 



 It's wet and miserable outside, hubby is off to the match this afternoon and Ginger cat is in favour of curling up on the sofa... Maybe not a bad idea.
Have yourselves a great weekend
Till soon

Wow, those colors sure look fabulous together!! A beautiful 'smooshing' job of the inks! I think it is CAS with a lot of character and beauty! We have been hammered with snow, snow and more snow and more to come today...I'm with Ginger the cat, good day to curl up on the sofa...I only wish...sigh!

A very pretty card with the water colored background, Ros! Wonderful text and love the glittery gold hearts! Hope you are taking it easy and feeling better with each new day, take care!

Great use of mix media elements on your unique card. Yes smooshing is always a challenge to keep it CAS as the backgrounds are always so beautiful...just like yours. I always struggle with mixed media and keeping it CAS and that's for me my own personal challenge x

Leslie Miller said...

It looks CAS enough to me 'cause you know how non-CAS some of my cards are. I love the smooshing, which I know is so fun to do. These two colors combine beautifully and the white embossing of your very old stamp is just the right touch of white over it. Raining here today, too, but more sun forecast later this week. I love the rainy days inside as long as they aren't endless like last winter.

Your smooshed and stamped background is so beautiful and artsy, Ros! Love the combination and blend of Peeled Paint and Faded Jeans! Die-cutting a sentiment from cork is a great idea! Hideko xx
