The Challenge for this month is: Water Coloring

The Prize from Altenew

Artists' Watercolor 24 Pan Set valued at $49.99

 

Here is my project-

I'm really happy over the background, which I made using the 24 pan watercolor set from Altenew! I struggle with watercolors, but I was really thrilled that the watermelons from Simple Fruit Set by Altenew looked so good on it. Thank you Cindy Chiu for that set! I used Pink Flamingo Distress Oxide ink for the melon, took a Q-Tip dipped in water and erased the rind, then stamped. I added the rind using a Ranger emboss pen and green embossing powder (Hampton Art), and cut them out with the matching die set. The sentiment was also part of the set.

Now enter the challenge for that same set of watercolors I used-they are a $49.99 value!
