SSS-Seeing Stars


Hi everyone. I gave water coloring a galaxy a try! Not sure what it supposed to look like exactly but I tried. I bought some water colors at Micheal's. Not expensive but I think they worked well (maybe Artist's Loft). I watched Dawn's video from Wplus9 but my tablet ran out of power so I had to do it from memory. It was fun! I thought of my daughter, the Art Teacher, the whole time I was painting, hoping she would approve. :).
I'm entering this in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge "Seeing Stars" Challenge. The challenge was just the push I needed to get out the paints. Even tho I could have used stars in lots of ways, I was dying to try this (and so happy to make something other than a Christmas card).
Other than water color paint I used Hero Arts Operation Write Home stamp, white embossing powder, and SSS dark gray card stock.
