Oxide Watercolour Flowers


I've continued my play with the Distress Oxides - still not sure I know what exactly to do with them but I hope practice makes... well if not perfect, at least better. Today I had a bit of a play using the Oxides for watercolouring, inspired by the CAS Watercolour Flower theme.  I can't believe I haven't managed to play along with this month's challenge yet as I love both watercolour and flowers. I was also inspired by the beautiful rainbow coloured flowers in this week's Inspired By All The Little Things and the embossing theme over at AAA Cards.

    These flowers are so pretty, Karola! I love the colors! I hadn't tried watercolor with the DOX yet. You have inspired me to try! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Watercolour!
