Hello! I don't know when I last posted but I feel like it's been a while. I do want to make sure to invite you to join this months Corrosive Challenge: Anything Goes!
I'm featuring Steampunk Octopus by Oddball Art Co. I have several of their digis and find them fun to color and use. For this card, I went with a watercolor background with different greens, black, and white. I tried to splash paint on, a dear blog buddy told me to add a bit of water to the acrylic to make it splatter better....I'm fairly sure I put too much water in both the white and gold paints. BUT, just when I though I ruined the watercolor background with the paint, I dabbed off the excess paint/water and I actually liked the effect!
I added a touch of glaze to his monocle, glasses and heart. I also added a little glitter pen. For the most part, I just wanted the octopus and background shine without too much more distraction.
Join in the Corrosive Challenge if you get a chance - there are still two more weeks left. Thank you for stopping by and taking a look.
This meets the following challenges: 2 Crafty Critter Crazies : Anything Goes with a Critter, Through the Craft Room Door: Anything Goes, Digi Choosday: Anything Goes, and Crafty Creations: Anything Goes.
