Inky Fingers

I thought I would have a play with some Shimmer Mists today. I'm not really sure what I'm doing or even of there is a right and a wrong way of working with this medium, anyway this is the result of my latest play.
I used a variety of shades, I think there was copper, gold and red here. When dry, I overprinted with a Script stamp in Stazon ink and the used part of the sheet for the die-cut flowers.
I didn't have a sentiment stamp with a small enough font or in a suitable script, so I made this one on the computer.
The flowers are Marianne's, the leaves Papermania and the embossing Cuttlebug.
