\n<\/a><\/span><\/strong>For my water color cards today, I came across some Brusho backgrounds I made who knows how long ago. \u00a0I couldn’t decide if I liked the turquoise\/blue bg or the rainbow bg more…so I used both! \u00a0On this \u00a0turq\/blue one, I put the Mill<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0image into my Misti and stamped it 2 or 3 times w\/ Versafne (to get good coverage). I added just a few highlights here & there w\/ a white gel pen then added the greeting<\/a><\/strong><\/span> below it. It’s edged w\/ a black marker, then attached to a turq layer & a very narrow black layer. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s the inside. The greeting was shadow stamped w\/ the blue ink slightly offset from the black.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/a>On the rainbow version, I went thru the same repetitive stamping as the first one but ended up heat embossing it w\/ black powder anyway. This unknown water color paper is soooo textured it made stamping a line image a little more difficult.<\/span>
\n\"\"
\n<\/a>I\u00a0die cut a narrow black square frame for it & stamped the greeting<\/a><\/strong><\/span> on a leftover piece of the background. A dot border was embossed on the frame between the image & the greeting.<\/span>
