I was playing around with Distress Oxide Inks and water color paper and came up with this background that I turned into a card. I stepped out of my comfort zone and did a little distress and layering with this one.
I used the following stamps:
5125-C, Dragonfly Sil. (sm
9713-E, Bubbles
6806-U, Sheet Music
Birthday sentiment
Scrappers floss in black used tie it all together along with some Black irResistible embellisher to create the drops. I also used Tim Holtz pen spritzer to add some ink splatters.
