Blue & Green Art - Giveaway

Last night I was experimenting with some paper doilies and paint in preparation for a photo shoot that I am styling soon (very exciting!!!)



So I got through painting  the yellow doilies


Then as I was mixing the turquoise paint I got a little distracted



I just loved the colour, 
it was so pretty, 
so I grabbed some canvas and painted it, 
as you do :-)




I liked the streaks in the paint showing the different shades of colour so I left the canvas just like that and went back to my original job, 


Unfortunately I was a little distracted and tried to rush my doily painting and left the doily on the paper in the same spot I painted it so most of them have stuck to the newspaper and I will have to start again, doh! 

That'll teach me for getting distracted.



The yellow ones are ok, 

probably because I hadn't gotten distracted yet :-)





Anyway, back to last night. 

After I rushed through the turquoise doilies I grabbed some of this



Mixed in a little of the paint and grabbed some more of these




and ended up with this














I am really happy with how they turned out and I just love the colour. 

The thing is I have no where to put them. 

So I want one of my lovely friends to have them. 

Each canvas measures 15 x 15cm 

and you can have the set of three.

Just leave a comment on this post and I will announce the new owner of an original "McCarthy Design" 

:-)

on Monday.



Oh and one last thing, I usually try and spend my weekend computer free for the most part but I have so many gorgeous pics and some great quotes that I find during the week that I would love to share. So I think that I will make Saturday my "Favourite Pic of the Week" day and Sunday can be my "Wise Words of the Week" day.

What do you think?

Have a great weekend and for those of you lucky enough to have a long one. Enjoy!

PS. Giveaway is open to anyone, just leave a comment and make sure I have a way to contact you.
