Ch 744 Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Recycle, Impression Obsession

Hi Everyone!


It is Wednesday again and I am here to introduce a new challenge at the fun and awesome Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

This is my take:





How to make this card:

I recycled a watercolor painting I no longer liked and diecut a panel from the backside of it. I stamped the beautiful flowers from using distress ink that when I came in whith the watercolor blends in which I think is quite beautiful instead of the hard edges a waterproof ink would create.
