This night sky was an experiment using watercolours to create instead of inks and although only a small piece I was quite pleased with the result and made it up into a card.
I tried to make a tiny silhouette skyline/treeline in the bottom left in an attempt to convey the vast sky we have around us - not sure if it worked!
I added some white heat embossed stars and a few spatters with a white Posca pen.
On the base card I did some light spatters using some very watered down blue paint.
The sentiment was a freebie a long time ago and although it looks a bit wonky in the pic it isn't in real life!
I am currently experiencing a little lack of mojo - and as we are having blue skies, sunshine and some warm days I can't blame it on the weather!
Thanks for looking today and I hope all is OK with you in your part of blogland. x

Absolutely stunning Viv - and I think you definitely HAVE conveyed the vastness of the sky. Thanks for joining in at Addicted to CAS this fortnight :)
I think the trouble with the nice weather is that it encourages us to get outside and do outdoors chores. So time is possibly the issue rather than lack of mojo!
LOL about the price of the box dies - felt the same way myself!
A lovely night sky effect, just right for the challenge. Blue skies and sunshine 'down south' but a cool breeze. Hope the mojo hasn't gone too far away - it happens 😉
Fabulous CAS card and your watercolour sky is absolutely brilliant love the embossed stars-your mojo looks fine to me

This is lovely. I really like the font on the sentiment. I think your mojo is now found. [Bunny]
A really great result for the background and a super sentiment to go with it.

It's wonderful! Great watercolouring and the perfect sentiment. I haven't lost my mojo but I'm taking time to get outside in the garden whilst we have sunshine Lol! Gotta make the most of it and get that Vitamin D, that said you would thing the warmer weather would have helped the arthritis in my hand but no... It's still painful. Have a good week!
I love the vastness of the sky you have achieved with this amazing card Viv. So atmospheric and loving those splats x.
Thank you Viv for always leaving such kind, generous and encouraging comments on my blog. I really do appreciate it and I can see no evidence of loss of Mojo here my friend x.
What a fantastic ard Viv, I love the deep deep blue of the night sky and the stars.
