Compendium of Curiosities3 Challenge - #1- Paint Marbling

  CC3C as it is named, is based on 
Tim Holtz's new book Compendium Of Curiosities Vol.#3  and is hosted over at Linda Ledbetter's challenge blog. 
 This is something new for me and I am excited to be taking part in it! 
I have recently found that when I enter these different challenges, I am opening myself up to do more techniques and trying more products,- pushing past that comfort zone- and you know what? I love the challenge- as well as the lessons learned!

         Week #1 of CC3C  ~The challenge is Paint Marbling 
                       here is my piece (time piece that is! heehee)

 

I've added a close up so you can get a real good look at how beautifully the paint colors marbled and melded!

 It's cool how even though I did not use a green or orange, I still have those colors! 

 I used a piece of lightweight watercolor paper and applied black gesso before the marbling technique.

The colors used are Ranger/Tim Holtz Distress Paints

in Picked Raspberry,Squeezed lemonade,Mustard Seed,Tumbled Glass Shaded Lilac,Peacock Feathers

The stamps I used are by Ranger/Tim Holtz-Stamper's Anonymous 

The time piece I have had for awhile and again, my mind fails me as to where I purchased it! Bad memory, but using up my stash! Gotta love that! 

thanks for stopping and this is where I'm linking up
