STAMPlorations #78

Inspiration time today using STAMPlorations images.

I used Trendy Butterflies and Bubbles Stencil for today's card.



To make the background for my card, I started with some water color paper.  Using Distress inks, I smooshed them onto my craft mat, spritzed with water, and ran the panel through the colors. After it dried, I laid the Bubbles stencil over the top and sponged on more color.  For the last step, I used a piece of acetate, smooshed on color, spritzed with more water, and drug that over the top of my layered sponging for a more vibrant color.  I have to say, layering all the inks was rather fun! 

You can pop on over to the STAMPlorations Blog to check out the rest of the Team's cards.  There is a prize for one random commenter, so don't forget to leave one here. :)
