Welcome to a brand new challenge here at The Mixed Media Card Challenge! For our challenge this month, the theme is RAINBOW, and optional element: DRAGONFLIES. Work with however you interpret the theme: add a rainbow, use all or some of the colors of the rainbow, include the word "rainbow" or use a sentiment about rainbows... We hope you'll have a go at creating a mixed media card that follows the theme with or without dragonflies. The team can't wait to see what beauties you'll be linking up!

On a piece of watercolor paper, i used Vivid (new paint from ColourArte) with a palette knife. I choose the rainbow colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple) and then i made some splatters with Twinkling H2Os. With the same Twinklings i add colors on a paper and cut these little dragonflies (Magnolia Die).
