Express Yourself with Lost Coast Designs

Good morning! It's the first Monday in August and that means it's time for a new Challenge on the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity! This month, the theme is Water Color Background. I'm on the team hosting this month's challenge and so have created and ATC to share.

I shook some Nuance Powder in Mauve, Grass Green, and Bright Yellow onto my ATC, then gave it a good spritz with water. I then stamped one of the ATC Grunge Set stamps onto the background and sprinkled on some clear EP. I spattered the background using LSG Prima Donna Purple and Bells of Ireland Green. I then watered down some white paint and spattered it on.

Stamp Mini Manga on a separate piece of mixed media card and set with clear EP. Paint the image with Silks in Snap Dragon, Key Lime, and Vintage Mint. The hair was painted with Paper Artsy Banana mixed with glazing medium to make it more transparent. Add the image to the card with foam to pop it off the page. Take some watered down white paint and paint an outline.

Lastly, smudge the edges of the ATC with Memories Royal Velvet Ink and add Chit Chat Words. Outline the words in the Banana paint then lightly cover with Silks Vintage Mint.

I'm entering this in the Colour Crazy Craft Challenge, Crafting with Friends, and Simply Papercraft,

Until later...............
