For my card I used the Arts & crafts sentiments set. This is a great set with lots of cute sentiments.
I started with top folding white card base and a watercolor panel cut down with a stitched die. I created the background by using Ken Oliver color burst and water. After I sprinkled some color on the panel, I spritzed it with water and got a gorgeous result. I placed the panel in the Original Misti so I could get a good impression for heat embossing. Because of the colorful background I ended up embossing it with white embossing powder so it would stand out more.
I love this sentiment because I am most happy when I'm inky
Happy Hopping
