Here is my take on the challenge.

Isn't the May mood board pretty.  I thought it was the right colour and theme for Mother's Day.  An what do you know, It is Mother's Day on Sunday!!!  I am loving that I am so organised!!!  My mum doesn't visit here, so It will be all good for the weekend.....now to buy a nice gift!

I had a play with the Distress Oxide and I wasn't disappointed!  I used my craft mat and watered down the oxide to create a nice wash.  I masked the first bloom and happy with the CAS feel but I thought it was too clean, hence the splashes to finish off.

anyway head on over to Ann's beautiful blog and I look forward to seeing your inspired contributions for this challenge ♥

 Hello back again! I have played around with my watercolours again and I just love how I can make the wash as soft or as vibrant as I want, depending on how much water I use to dilute.  I have embossed the MFT scribble flower with white embossing powder, which is a good resist for the WC.  Head on over to Scrapbook Boutique to see the instructions and purchase the products used for this card.
