Bokeh Blues

I saw a Bokeh tutorial and thought I'd have a go, this is what I came up with for CAS(E) this Sketch.  Watercolour paper, masked,  with watercolours painted across it.  Homemade acetate stencil with various circle sizes cut into it, white pigment ink brushed into the circles.  A border doodled around the Bokeh and and Waltzing Mouse sentiment added. 
I'm also entering:
 AA Cards - create with stencil
Speedy Fox & Friends - CAS
Vandicrafts - mostly ink (hmm not sure if watercolour counts as ink or paint!)
