Okay this is my second card for the ways to use it challange. I was looking at the tutorials and playing with my markers. I tried the Misting with Copic Markers technique. I only used three markers, R35, G07 and Y15. After I had colored my stamp, I very lightly sprayed the alcohol onto the stamp. I was worried the colors might run, so it was a very light spray. That is the flowers you see on the right side of the card. After a few tries, I decided to use more alcohol and that is the poinsettia on the bottom left of the card.
I thought it made for an interesting look. So I thought I would share it and see what you think. Thanks for a awesome challenge and thanks for taking a peek!

Oh, I LOVE the blurry, smooshy look of that large forward poinsettia, Kathleen! The other flowers appear to be in the background, so it all looks great together!
