IT'S CHALLENGE TIME!!!

Theme:  Christmas in July

Stash:  Glitter/Stickles

You have one week (till July 28th) to get your projects in.

This week's sponsor is:

For this week;s challenge, I picked a digi image called "Christmas Trees and Parcels" by Hope Jacare Doodles for Stitchy Bear.  I also decided to try a new technique I came across online - Watercoloring with Distress Markers. Basically, what you do is take your distress marker and color a small spot on a teflon sheet or a splat mat; then using a waterbrush, pickup a little bit of the color from the splat mat and start "painting" your image by starting on one side and pulling the color to the other side . . . continue to do this till you have the depth of color you want.  Here's how my card turned out:

In addition to my Distress Markers, I used papers from PaperTemptress - Green Ruche, Iredescent Cryogen, Rose Quartz mica/metallic and Pearl mica/metallics.  After adding some clear Wink of Stella and Frosty Stickles, I was done. :)

I do have closeup sots, but as of right now I don't have access to my internet via my computer so I can upload them.  I will try to get them uploaded before this goes "LIVE" . . . but if not, I will do so later in the day.

Remember, you have one (1) week to get your projects in at Clear It Out Challenge.  Can't wait to see what you come up with for Christmas in July!!!

Till the next time I'm up in the night.
