I have really enjoying playing with Brushos this past week. For this card I switched to Distress Inks because I was looking for softer colors. I began by stamping various circle stamps with VersaMark and embossing with white embossing powder on watercolor paper. The ink was smeared on an acrylic block and then with a wet paint brush I picked up the colors and filled in the circles. When this process was done I spritzed the paper with water. On a craft mat I smooshed two colors of ink and sprayed with water then placed a snippet of wc paper on top and patted the paper lightly. This piece of paper when dry was die cut. A second die was cut with blue cs and the two pieces were glued together and then I applied Wink of Stella. The die was glued on to the focus piece and mounted onto a piece of blue cardstock and then the base card.
