I'm playing... I don't know if I am making up techniques or making a mess... but I kind like it. I watercolored the spray, then I totally wetted the background of the shimmery and applied ink. I had puddles of inky colored water. The last color I added was some gold encore. Then, I took my heat tool and evaporated all the water... moving from puddle to puddle ~ that's why you see the rings from the ink...

Very pretty coloring on those flowers - I love the effect. Sort of like a watercolor version of polished stone. Looks like I'll be buying some Hodgepodge soon. TFS. Linda
