Water Me


Time for a quick card this morning.  Playing along with the colour challenge at Splitcoast.  These colours were right up my alley.
I began by creating the background for my panel by inking the Circular Design from Penny Black with shades of green Distress inks.  I sprayed with water to blend, then stamped off onto scrap paper before going on to my panel to give a more muted look.  Then, I coloured the flower stamps with Memento markers, sprayed with water and stamped over the background.  This Rubbernecker flower is a two-part stamp.  I mounted the panel on a piece of blue cardstock the pop dotted it onto my card front after adding the sentiment.

Adding my card to these challenges:
Love to Create- ANYTHING GOES

Thanks so much for dropping by to take a look....very appreciated!

Supplies; stamps- Rubbernecker, Penny Black, Impression Obsession/ Distress inks/ Memento markers/ mini spray bottle/ black Memento ink/ pop dots

    Nice card, Karen! Great bkgrd and I like the way the flowers are over-stamped slightly out of the lines. It looks GOOD on your card when you do it but I always feel on mine, it looks like I "missed the mark." Hee! :)
