Fabulous flowers

I just love the scribble style of these stamps from  Lil Inkers and I thought they were perfect for a technique I saw done by Jennifer McGuire on one of her videos.
The image was stamped in Versamark and embossed with white EP. The whole piece of card was inked with Mowed Lawn Distress Ink until the colour was quite strong and the card was well covered. The next step was to paint with water inside the image to remove some of the colour, then some Mustard Seed DI was flooded into the flowers and a final coat of Wink of Stella added.
It's such a pretty effect!
It's for the challenge at Addicted to Stamps and more - Make your Mark.
The sentiment is a die-cut from Waffle Flower, mounted over a section of the card embossed with a Cuttlebug folder.

    I watched Jennifer's video, such a great technique. And I love the deep green you chose here, Chrissie, so effective with the crisp white.
