This card was created by stamping the leaf stamp from Botanical Garden in More Mustard. Then made broad random strips of Old Olive Marker and Really Rust Marker. Then with the stamp laying face up upon the work surface I spray it with a fair amount of water until the colors began to bleed together. Then applied the cardstock to it and used my fingertips to get even inking.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments. The brads are not showing on the inside. They only go through the rust colored paper. And if they do show on the inside of the card, I will put in a filler paper which is cut just slightly smaller than the card size to hide those type items. Thanks again.

Absolutely gorgeous. What a great idea to use the water to blend the inks. I love it when you ladies are kind enough to explain your techniques. Thanks
