February, the love month

Good morning and welcome to February, the love month 💓 and the last month before spring arrives.
As it is the first of the month it is time for my first design team project for Country View Challenges. This month the theme is splatters, splashes and drips.
 So we would like to see all your inky/painty splattered creations and one lucky randomly selected entry will receive a £20 gift code to spent on the website. 
All the details can be found here.

For my first project this is what I got up to;
 I sprayed hickory smoke and picked raspberry oxide inks onto my watercolour paper. Then I added a little gold spritz of gold spray.
I used stamps from 2 of the super cute Tracey Easson Star gazer sets; Morty Bottoms and Betsy Bottoms
When my background was dry I stamped the Believe moon and gold embossed it and also stamped Morty in black Versafine which I clear embossed.
I coloured him in with Zig real colour watercolour markers. I paper pieced the moon and stamped the words out and cut some of them out.


Here he is..such a gorgeous image. I liked the way the oxides still show through him. 

Here is my finished card.
I would like to link it up with the following challenges;

Simon says Monday all loved up
Simon says Wednesday anything goes
Crafty catz 1/3 anything goes
Uniko 1/3 anything goes

I hope I may have inspired you to join in with our challenge. You can use any stamps/products, the choice is yours. 
You can enter our challenge as many times as you like and combine with other challenges. There is also a £20 crafting voucher up for grabs to the lucky randomly selected winner to spend over on the Country View Crafts on line store. Remember that UK postage and packing is absolutely FREE! Once again all the details for the February challenge can be found here.

I will be back with some more inspiration for CVC on Wednesday with another splashy/inky card...which could not be more different!

Bye for now,
