Slow down and smell the roses with
AIR16 Vintage WCMany folks like to think of summer as a relaxed pace. So I have decided to slow down this event’s warm-up activity by extending it over 3 days. The playing time is also relaxed so you can play with this challenge as much as you desire with no time limit.
CHALLENGE OPEN: It will open at noon on Friday 6/10/16 and will close at midnight your time on Monday 6/13/16.
Background: Heather Telford, watercolor artist presented a weekly tutorial at Splitcoaststampers on Vintage Stamping at the beginning of May.
Here is a link to that tutorial. Today Heather is completing a week-long series (Monday-Friday) on vintage watercoloring for Penny Black.
Here is Monday's link to her blog.Throughout the week Heather demonstrated twists on color combos and methods of using the colors so you may want to check each posting.
Challenge: The focus of this challenge is to play with water based colors and techniques to find your personal favorite combinations. Share your results on a card front in the gallery with the Key word: AIR16 Vintage WC along with a description of what you tried.
RAK –each player with be entered into a random drawing for each gallery post. A RAK will be sent to the selected player.
To keep the focus on exploring vintage watercolor I ask that you do not combine this challenge with others.
I would love to have a discussion here of your experience with this challenge. Also please speak up if any questions arise. But do know I am experiencing extreme trouble with my server internet connection this week. Tech support may not be available to check my connection until Monday. So please help each other with any questions that may arise.
Happy creative play!...Jan
