Hi everyone. Time for a new challenge at Addicted to CAS. Today, the very talented and always entertaining Marie (baileyrosy) has chosen this code word ....
LOVE this challenge! Looking forward to seeing all the creative cards in the gallery! :) I used a digital image printed onto watercolor paper. I used my yellow marker to outline along the outside edge of the image and then used a wet paint brush to blend it to create a sunny glow around the dahlia. I then used my inks and blender pen to color the flower (marker layering technique).
Prize: 5 free digital images
(please follow the rules to be eligible to win)
I hope you'll join us for this fun challenge (ATCAS Challenge #38 - code word: Off the Edge). As always, the challenge is open for two weeks so there's lots of time to play along. Click on the link to find out about the challenge and see the wonderful Design Team cards by the rest of our team.

Absolutely gorgeous coloring and design, Loll! I love the 'dreamy' effect you've created around the flower...so lovely!
Wow Loll, this is a stunner for sure! I love that dahlia and the way you have colored it. The yellow going around the flower makes it look like the sun is shinning ever so bright from behind. Great, great card! Hugs
