CAS Watercolor: July - Butterfly

Thanks to the inspiration of Loll Thompson and her friend Karen.  I came up with the following for this month's CAS Watercolor Challenge.  The technique using tissue paper is ADDICTING!  Be forewarned! You will find a fabulous video byLoll by clicking on her name above...or  here.   The background is a texture past through a stencil by RYN designs.  Heading to the store today to get some more tissue paper!


Enjoy, and thanks for looking!

I also added this to the CAS Mix It Up Challenge.  Thanks Loll for the suggestion.
