The inspiration site this week is Olive and Cocoa and I found quite a bit of inspiration! My card was inspired by the Saffron Serpentine Vase - mostly the colors of the flowers. I used Distress Markers direct to the Hero Arts stamp, spritzed with water and stamped onto smooth white card stock. That panel was attached to an embossed card base with foam squares.
