Hi there! It's been awhile since I've played along with the PTI Make It Monday challenge so I thought I would take the time to do so. This week's challenge is all about a fun technique referred to as Watercolor Smooshing.

Here's my take on the challenge:

I combined a couple of my all time favorite PTI stamps sets: Round & Round and Sending You. I completed it with a trio of sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

For color inspiration, I joined along with this weeks Pals Paper Arts challenge:

and for sketch inspiration, I joined along with the CAS(E) sketch challenge:

Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great weekend!
Be Sweet ;)
