Today's Featured Stamper, Laura, has a very different style from what I typically create, so this was definitely a challenge for me. I was drawn to this card:
I liked the painted background. Of course, I don't have any watercolors with me here, so I had to improvise. I used three different ink pad colors and picked up the dye ink off the cover with a wet brush.
The Tropical flourish die I used is very thin and would not cut through chipboard or even a lightweight cardboard, so I had to glue several layers of card stock and DSP together.Tedious, but it worked.
I changed the die, colors, greeting and added two layers.

Kathy, you did an amazing job for doing a style you're not familiar with, I really like the bg and the die-cut looks just like chipboard. Beautiful soft colors.
