Make A Moo - Favourite colours

Make A Moo.... or two! this week has the fabulous theme Favourite Colour!! Well I have adore all colour but as time is short I narrowed it down to two. Both are pieces of card coverd with gesso. Once dried I inked one with Dusky Concorde & the other with Faded Jeans. Once they were dry I built up the colour in places over inking & spritzing water to make some parts paler.
The flowers are from a See D's set & the beach items were from around my flat. I added a foam stamp to the background to give a look of waves. I find both these colours very restful.
I love how the flower has dried darker in some areas than others, thats the fab effect you can get form just one shade of ink!!
