Floating Floral


 Tonight I pulled out my new Tim Holtz Distressed Crayons and attempted to use them to watercolor these beautiful Concord & 9th floral images.  Geez, Tim made it look so easy on YouTube...what the heck!  After several tries, I decided to settle on this one (and added some Copic).  Maybe next time I'll try with larger images and smoosh with my fingers to blend in the color.  Hey, at least I got to play in my craft room tonight and that's all that counts - right?!

Thanks to these challenges for letting me share:
