Wow - this was fun to do and completely different than what I started with. I also just can't get myself away from these colors - I am totally and completely in LOVE with Soft Sky and Blue Bayou - what will I do when they are gone!?! Good thing we still have awhile yet. This was done for the pin challenge, which was very challenging as I have been trying to figure out what to do with the Pretties Kit for awhile so thanks for that.
I also had fun doing a technique that I am not sure if it is an official technique or not - I will call it "crumple-dye". I took my Vanilla cardstock and sprayed it down nice and good with my water bottle and then while it was still drippy I took the brush end of my Not Quite Navy and gently painted along the edges so that it bled into the cardstock. I then crumpled away and ironed it out and wallah! If you try it out, please pm me and let me know what you think! ;)

Oh, such a pretty card! Glad you figured out what to do with the pretties, cause they're wonderful here! I'm gonna try that crumple dye 'technique'. I love the look that it gave your card!
