Painting with Grunge Paste

The guest designer this week on the Paperartsy Blog is Liz Borer.  Liz had a fantastic technique painting with Grunge Paste which had been watered down a little.  So I was inspired to have a go. Here is my efforts.  I found a piece of mountboard I had already painted.  (If I have left over paint I usually use up the paint on any old piece of material ready to use later). I stamped using some of Lin Browns Stamps which I thought would be suitable, in Black Archival, and then painted with watered down Grunge Paste, finished the painting with  Lilac and Eggplant for the flower and butterfly and Tinned Peas and Limelight for the leaves. Finally adding Treasure Gold to highlight.
