Using our colors for this week's color challenge (CC511)....rubbed crumb cake ink on my craft mat and spritzed with water, dragged my wc cs through it a couple of times, letting the water drip across the cs. After letting it dry I inked up the leaf cluster stamp and then spritzed with water before stamping. Stamped the sentiment and when dry I spattered the panel just a little with white acrylic paint diluted with water. Matted with both white and crumb cake and adhered to card front.

A beautiful serene image! Thank you so much for providing the details of your process. The shaded nuances of your 'dragged' background really add depth to your card. TFS

This card went into my fave's the instant I saw it! I appreciate your description of how you made it, because I *must* try something similar. This is a beautiful and yet serene and restful card, perfect for a sympathy card. And it's beautiful!
