That's an absolutely dreamy background, and I love how the petals of the sunflower come into focus in the foreground. Off to see the details.

WOW! Love the layers on this. That background is amazing and more amazing you got the yellow to show over the top of that. There is so much to see in that background. This is amazing work!

Love this technique and would like to learn more! Love your cards!

Fabulous - glad I saw them in real life. I'm thinking of trying the technique with my gouache paints since I don't have the chalk fresco ones.

Such a cool and simple technique resulting in three beautiful cards. I wonder if this works with gouache paints(?). 🤔

Wonderful brayered background with random stamping, Christine! The yellow stenciled flower pops against the beautiful blue, the white Posca colored flowers are so pretty, and the heat-embossed butterflies are awesome!
