Watercoloured Roses

Good Morning.

Meet today's card inspired by this beautiful basket and the challenge at Splitcoast.

Here is what I did.  

I began by stamping the roses onto a piece of watercolour paper with Versamark ink and white heat embossed them.   Using my Zigs, I did a loose watercolour on them by putting down a bit of colour then pulling the inks into the stamped image with a wet paintbrush.

Next, I pressed some Distress ink directly from the pad onto my non-stick craft sheet and used the wet paintbrush to fill in the background.  There was some leftover ink on my sheet when I was done that I didn't want to waste, so I sprayed water over it and pressed my whole card front into the wet ink.  It gave a lovely texture and added depth to the whole piece.

I stamped the sentiment from Stampendous using my Misti and Tuxedo black ink.

I scored my card front (sorry, it's a bit hard to see in the photo) and then glued the piece over that.
