The blues and greens of this kit really inspired me to create some misted backgrounds with lots of water and stamps featuring natural images.
These cards are always unique. No two are ever quite the same. I was also inspired by Tricia's art orphans, and Christine experimenting with mix'd media ink to play with my inks and stamps.
It's easier to show you how I made these, so I made a little video sharing my techniques and thoughts with you.
Who can resist a card with a saying like this?
