This card is really a watercolor experiment. I sponged some Evergreen and Peacock distress inks all over a piece of watercolor paper and then dropped some spots of water over it with an eye dropper. I sponged some more inks over that, dropped some more water over, etc until it was an interesting background. I let that dry, and then I sprayed some white Dylusions ink over it. I love the tiny spots of white ink over the "northern lights"-style background. It's almost like snow! This card is for Patricia's challenge - HYCCT1421. I left the inside blank so it can be used for a general "hugs and peace" type card or it can be used for a Christmas card. :-)
