A card for today's Ways to Use It challenge to use spritzing and spraying. This is done using a watercolour bg created by pressing ink pads onto an acrylic block, then spraying it with water before pressing onto the watercolour paper. It's then been spritzed with water and pressed with a paper towel to lift some of the ink.
The wildflowers have been highlighted with a white gel pen. Thanks for a great challenge, Cathy!

I like how the water droplets subdue the background just a little, and I love the white highlighted silhouette!

Ah, a white gel pen! I was thinking how beautifully you had stamped in white first to create that shadow effect. I have a couple of solid florals, I must try something like this with them. I think there's one that I've only ever used for Black Magic style stamping.
