👻 While tallying up the first week of posts and comments I found a few posts meant for the hop but are missing from the linky!  I left comments on them to let you know you forgot to add them!

Howzit Creative Friends!
Today I'm sharing my 4th mixed media painting, this one features the Mushroom Cottage with Hazel Silhouette Faeire from my brand new release, The Enchanted Garden Collection😊 Don't forget the release sale ends TONIGHT at midnight pacific!

To create this painting I watercoloured the background with Wilted Violet, Pickled Raspberry, Bundled Sage and Forest Moss Distress Oxides.  The images are done with a combination of watercolour paint and aqua pencils and then the entire design enhanced with Prismacolor pencils.  I also used a white gel pen to add details and highlights too.
