When I went to the site for today's challenge, I didn't think I would find anything. Then I went to blog and found a ton of inspiring pics! I chose Lights for this one. I love the bright color against the black and white.
All images are Innovative Stamp Creations. For my card, I stamped the Spanish script with black ink on white card stock. On a piece of water color paper, I stamped the script using resist ink and heat set it. I used a mister to wet the paper and floated in various colors of dye reinkers. I was hoping for more resist with the script, but it absorbed some of the inks and ended up looking more like faint stripes. When it dried, I black embossed the flowers on it and cut them out. I used a large corner rounder on all the layers.
I had a piece of drywall mesh sitting on my work table so I placed it over a small piece of white card stock and sponged on ink from two different Kpads. After removing the mesh, I black embossed the greeting and cut it out with a Spellbinders oval die.
Thanks so much for looking! More details and close ups have already been blogged: The Write Stuff
I already have another picked out, so I'm sure I'll be back!

Very nice! Love the effect of the script on the flowers, even though it didn't turn out as you had envisioned, it's beautiful anyway!
