{inky} THANKS

Ink...Ink...Ink!!! But before explaining the inking process, just remembered to share with you the joy I had on Friday :) My tHaNkS card won the Top 3 @ If The Shoe Fits...Scrap It and another card, Tooty Fruity, was featured at All Things Unity (woohoo)...
Now back to my humble card...I started with distressing Neenah Cardstock in Broken China then sprinkled some water to create this dew effect :) Later, I stamped the flowers followed by Letter Background Stamp to fill the white gaps. Final steps were adding the alphabets, butterfly, buttons and that strip of black paper....

This card is entering for:

Love the writing style on my new stamp...


Got other inking ideas too that will be shared soon... But my next post will showcase a baby arrival card for Inspirational Card Sketches (Guest Designing),,,Until then, happy inking!!!!
