Tonight I'm going Green (specifically Peeled Paint Distress Ink) for this week's CASology Challenge.
I inked the Florentine Pattern Background from Hero Arts with Distress Ink and then spritzed liberally with water before stamping to get a sort of mottled watercolor effect. I also inked-up a sentiment from the new Hero Arts Set Thank You for being My Friend set with the same ink and then edged my sentiment panel with ink for a bit of contrast with the white background.
I added bits of Hero Arts bling to help create create a Focal Point in the design for the Moxie Fab World Challenge.
The layout is one of the Hero Arts August Sketches for their Clean & Simple Stamping Challenge.
