CAS(E) This Sketch



There's a fabulous new sketch by Chrissy Larson over on the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge blog! It was perfect to ink up a new Concord and 9th image from their Hello Lovely stamp set!  I watercolored using distress ink markers then blended lightly with a brush.  I added yellow stickles and black enamel essentials to the flower centers.

DISTRESS MARKERS USED: Dried Marigold, Abandoned Coral, Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed, Shaded Lilac, Wilted Violet, Twisted Citron, Peeled Paint, Mowed Grass, Tumbled Glass.

I'm not happy with the watercoloring so will need to try to use paints instead of markers next time.  :-(  Rome wasn't built in a day...right?
