What is the Belli Challenge you ask?
Each week, I try to give us a challenge that will use things we have lying around our stamp rooms! With a constant flow of new things coming out, I tend to forget about the other things I have and they quickly become clutter!
This Weeks Belli Challenge is to use PAINT...You can mix your paint with Lumiere and Pearl Ex or Lumiere and Ink Refills, Making Memories Paint, Twinkling H20's, Watercolor Wonder crayons, Ink Refills, etc. In my stamp room alone, I have every one of those! :) Now to get the mojo to use them. I used the Twinkling H20's and water color wonder crayons to watercolor this image.
Here is what you need to do.
Make a completed project embellishing your work with your PAINT. Share the link here in the comments linking to my Blog and CBC37. When you post to Splitcoaststampers or to your Blog, be sure and put CBC37 as the KEYWORD and mention of the challenge - with a link!
I will do a random drawing for all participants and have a special pack of assorted Designer Papers for the winner!
Here are a few details about my card...

Chris, I have adored the work of Thomas Kincade for years! I was super excited when he allowed his images to be put into 'rubber' format! Your painting of this picture is gorgeous! TFS it all.
Hugs, Barb g
Wow! That is beautiful! I never thought to mix pearl x with other mediums! That is just beautiful!
This is a really great card. I like the colors and the effect of the water coloring on it. I think it would also make a great Father's day card!
