Colorful Options wants lovely shades of blue, mauve, and green. I decided they worked well for a dragonfly.
It's stamped in archival ink, watercoloured with Twinkling H2Os, trimmed with a stitched rectangle die, bordered in pale gold glitter cs, and popped up with fun foam on cream cs.
For the Triple B Birds, Blooms, and / or Butterflies challenge, I was inspired by the winter bird in the right hand image of their mood board and the shade of blue in the left hand image. And Stencil Fun's theme is Birds.
I stamped and watercoloured the image. Then stencilled the bubbles around it, stamped a few bits of a snowflake along the edges, and sponged a bit of colour around the edges to darken them.
