Are you playing???
Are you playing in the Dare to Get Dirty challenges at Splitcoaststampers? This is an annual event put on by Splitcoast and all the Dirty Girls past and present.
There are several challenges every day this week, Monday, June 21 through Sunday, June 27. The theme this year is A Day in the Life of a Dirty Girl. Each of the Dirty Girls that is hosting a challenge will be demonstrating what it is that makes them unique or stand out above the crowd and helped to make them “dirty”!
I wasn’t able to host a challenge this year, but I did make a sample for one of today’s challenges, Watercolor Wows, which is hosted by Christine of ChristineCreations fame! She always wows me with her artwork whether she watercolors or not!
I watercolored using a waterbrush and Adirondack inks, then painted over that with my Shimmerz paint. I painted around the edge of my sentiment tag too. Wow, what a shine! I also cut out my flowers while they were still slightly damp and curled the leaves up a little with my fingers to give them more dimension. You can click on the photo to see a larger version.
I hope you’ll play along with the challenges this year. If you’re not a Fan Club member yet and would like to play, here is a link to more details: Splitcoast Fan Club
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you’ll decide to play with us! I look forward to seeing your creations!
