CSSC #6

Hi All!  When I went on vacation, I took a few crafting supplies but limited myself to one small tote and you know how hard that is!  I took two stamps, distress inks, watercolor paper, aqua brush, and a handful of scraps.

I worked on this card for the Crooked Stamper Sketch Challenge #6 and the SOS challenge using gingham.  The gingham challenge closed by the time I got home but thank goodness CSSC is still open!

 

 

The pen & ink dahlia stamp (Impress) was inked up with Mustard Seed Distress Ink and stamped on watercolor paper.  I used an aqua brush to move the color around a bit and added a brown center in Walnut Stain.  I fussy cut the bottom half of the flower and used yellow gingham DSP for the bottom half.  I should fess up...there was a big splat on the bottom of the watercolor paper so fussy cutting seemed appropriate!  The sentiment is from the Stamps of Life and a strip of washi tape was added to the left side. 

 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
