For my Create card, I started w/ a splat embossing folder, inked it w/ the different colors of distress inks, spritzed it w/ a little water, then placed my piece of white card stock inside & pressed. It wasn’t embossed..it’s still flat. (There’s a tutorial for this showing how to do it w/ daubers, but ink pads work great, too.) I wanted just a bit more of the raspberry color, so I used the Ink Spots image to add some here & there. I placed a couple of frames on top of it & added my stacked Create die cut on top. The Mug of Art was stamped, colored w/ Copics & fussy cut along w/ the paintbrush. A few sequins were added for a little sparkle.
Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

This is so very pretty!
Beautiful card; love the soft colors and card design.
Love both cards.
These are so gorgeous, particularly the last one with the boat.
A beautiful card in beautiful colours. As always I like to read how you created your card so thank you for taking the time to write it out. I wondered how you created that gorgeous splattered bg.
Both cards are wonderful.
My husband would have enjoyed
the second card – he was an
avid fisherman and this is
the kind of boat he’d been
using.
thanks for sharing
Ooh, just love your color choices for your ‘create’ card. And your ‘boat’ card is gorgeous, too. Thank you for sharing your beautiful designs with us.
Love the background what a wonderful ideal it works great with the create and the paint brushes.
This is delightful! Love the paint splatters and the background for that boat!
