As you see, collage is definitely not a forte of mine!!
For this VSN challenge, I watercolored direct to rubber with twinkling H2O's, then I stamped on a torn book page. I stamped images from Artifacts on the page and dusted with Vintage Photo distress ink after tearing the edges.
The flowers have glue dots in their centers covered with copper micro beads.
I am layout challenged----that's always what takes me so long on a card. So for VSN I use sketches that I know and do all the time or I rely on mags like Joy of Card Making, but for this card, my sketch is inspired from a Make and Take that I did a few years ago at my local stamping store.
TFL!
