Grungy flower card

 

Hi There! Thought I would show you how I made this card.

I began by smooshing a piece of watercolour paper with Distress oxide inks.
Next I rubbed a little microglaze through the tag inkable before spraying with Walnut stain Distress Spritz before leaving it to dry.
Using the Background script stamp without putting it onto a block, I added some patches of stamping in Tea Dye Distress oxide. 
On another piece of card I stamped the flower from Journaling essentials #8 3 times and coloured it in, cutting it out to layer it up.
I used more stamps from this set to add to the background, before matting and layering it onto a card base
I also stamped some of the leaves from Journaling essentials #3 onto a scrap of smooshed card.
On a scrap of dark brown card, I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink and heat embossed it in white, before adding all the elements to the card base using either foam pads or matte medium.


Here is the finished card again. 
I used: 
Distress oxide inks in dried Marigold, Cracked Pistachio and tea Dye
Distress Micro glaze
Distress Spritz in Walnut stain
Versamark ink
Cream A5 card
Watercolour card 6x4"
Dark brown card for matting and layering and the sentiment

Thanks for looking!

I love the moroccan tile pattern and the script in the background and the green and orange oxide ink smooshed over it complement that pretty turquoise and orange flower and the brown edge stamp and brown matted layer help to make it all stand out. x
