I started by doing a color wash on WC paper with Distress Stain. Dried with heat gun. Die cut Panels 2 and 3 with SB/Labels 07, then inlaid them upside down to the way they were cut so they wouldn't blend in with Panel 1. Cut the border with MB/Tessatina Border and used 3 of the negative pieces to mount the Swarovski crystals on. Added SS/hello, matted on green CS and adhered to card base.

You get some of the most beautiful effects with your watercolor washes! I love that you did your inlays in reverse to mix up the colors! This is so imaginative and I love that beautiful die cut border in white to go with this!
