Lifting up a song- mix-Ability card

My card that I'm sharing today is for several challenges.
First for:
Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge PPA303, I love the colors in this challenge.

Second challenge:
Try it on Tuesday: I can Hear Music I used music notes for my little birds to sing.

The third challenge is :
Word art Wednesday 232-233

The fourth challenge is the MIX-ABILITY challenge on Splitcoast stampers. I am the hostess this week. My friend Maxine shared a card using this technique last month and you can see it HERE.

When I saw it I knew I was going to use Jennifer Mcguire's Watercoloring Lifting Heat Embossing


Here is what my watercolor wash looked like when it dried. 

I stamped the music notes with versamark and clear embossing powder. Then I lifted the color up. I then stamped the birds and grass, with  black stazon. The black didn't completely fill in because the paper was a little warped. I thought about filling it in with a sharpie marker, but then I decided to color it in with blue and green. I added green to the grass as well.



I added white acrylic paint drops and lines to the grass.
 I sprayed gold shimmer paint on panel. I splattered white acrylic paint with a toothbrush. I also added glamour dust to the flowers.


I added cheesecloth and brads to finish off my card.

  8. I think adding the green and blue to fill in the stamped image created more texture and creative interest to your card. Thanks for sharing your creativity with the Pals this week.
