This was one of the two I made...
I started of with a piece of White card and painted over the top with the Blue & Green Aquatints, I then sprayed water over the top and blotted dry, I was quite pleased with the result so did not wish to cover it all up.
I decided just to stamp a couple of John Lockwood's design stamps so I stamped the grass at the bottom in two different shades of Green distress inks, Forest Moss & Crushed Olive, then using my versamark ink pad I stamped the square daisy chain and heat embossed with White embossing powder.
In the center of the Daisy Chain I added the sentiment using Forest Moss distress ink.
I matted this onto a plain White base card and there you have the finished card. Dimensions 4"X6".
