Using a technique I learned from Jill Foster: On a panel of wc cs slightly smaller than my card front, I colored and stamped the flower stamp with my MISTI several times adding color with zig markers and spritzes of water as I went. Then I cleaned the stamp and clear embossed the whole image (my stamp was left in my MISTI). Because I clear embossed the image, this allows me to sponge the bg over the top of the embossed images. Stamped the sentiment, splattered some black and some white acrylic paint, and mounted this panel on the card front with dimensional tape.
