Visible Image Red and Black

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped in!


I'm so enjoying using red and black this month for the
CAS Watercolour Challenge.

This time I added a drop of Pinkfresh Studio liquid watercolor onto
a small piece of acetate and spritzed with water before 
pressing it down onto a piece of watercolor paper.

I used a waterbrush to add a bit more water and move the
color around a bit more.

When it was completely dry, I stamped the flower, mounted it
on a black card base and added the sentiment. 


Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

    What a gorgeous red Bonnie and love the loose look you have given it by stamping the flower over the top of the red area when it was dry and the black card really makes it stand out beautifully, and finished perfectly with the white on black sentiment. x

    Wow, how eclectic and artsy this is, Bonnie. This is a style I love and have not had the nerve to do it. Yet I love this look particularly with the black banner, really setting it off. Fabulous card!

    I do like this approach to watercoloring. This artsy flower definitely needed this style. Again the black just gives it more style. LOVE IT!

    This card has great speaking power. Bold red that blurs into shades of pink ... the perfect background for this unconventional flower. The black background makes the flower red even more. WOW !!
