More Bister

Here's another little sample of all the different colours I have.  On each of these I painted a little bit of water on with a paintbrush and then sprinkled just a tiny bit of Bister on each wet spot:



So today I tried something different.  I first stamped and clear embossed Mike's seaweed, then I sprayed with some green Bister colour spray and then I lightly sprinkled some brown Bister on top.  It was a bit too dark at first so I sprayed with water until I got a result I liked.  Here's the background mounted on paper:

I was going to add the turtle but there's the seahorse I love which also has a die cut.  No contest.  Here's the seahorse on this murky water background:
