Balloon Animals

Hello.  Welcome.  A special hi and hello to Asha.  So pleased you joined my happy little band.  Hugz all round.  

I found a new challenge called ARTastic, which had a beautiful inspiration photo of a girl and yummy colours.  I am fairly certain this is not the usual style of the submissions they get but......  I combined it with CAS-ual Fridays where they want a watercolour technique and a CAS card. 




I've used part of Unity Stamp Co. Big Time Special set for my girl.  I stamped the girl on a white hammered card.  Then I coloured with Cosmic Shimmer watercolours.

Thanks for dropping by.  Take care.  Hugz
