As you know, I love playing with my Distress inks and getting inky. This card is another one using the Embossing Folder inking technique. I LOVE it! You can watch the video posted with yesterday's card.
I began by inking up my hexagon folder from Stampin Up with Distress inks in these colours: Peeled Paint, Shaded Liliac, Dusty Concord and Spun Sugar. When you add water, the colours blend together so well. When it was all dry, I stamped the flowers from Unity and added the sentiment.
Adding my card to these challenges:
