The CardMaking Process

First, I stamped the large image from the Thankful Magnolia stamp set on Strathmore watercolour paper (300 grams) using the Misti and Antique Linen Distress Ink.
I left the stamp in the Misti as I was intending to use it later over the same image.
Then, I applied colour using Kuretake Clean Color Real Brush Markers (ZIGS) and a Nuvo Aqua Brush.
Next, I placed the panel on the Misti and to rescue the details I applied different marker colours on the stamp and stamped over the coloured piece.
I couldn’t resist and I also mixed the ink of a black marker with water to splatter over the piece.

Once the piece was coloured and the paper was dry, I die cut it using the Eyelet Frame die set by Spellbinders and I glued the panel into a solid background piece to then glue this onto a 5×7 inches card base.

To add sparkle, I applied Spellbinders Sparkle Silk over the image and I also added glitter to the centre of the flower.
