Too Heavy Handed With The Squidgee Thing

Afternoon all, here I am again (you can tell I've had withdrawal symptoms can't you) with my second post of the day.  My earlier post of Animal Antics is here.

So I am back with my LESS IS MORE card for this week and their colour challenge of AQUA.  Now, a friend and I always debate this one - I tend to see more blue, and she sees more green.  

I really struggled to get a crisp photo of this one - I think the poor light and a lot of white on the card totally confused my phone camera.  This has been the best I've managed.

Using a Hero Arts flower stamp and VersaMark, I created a watermark image, and then with the sponge squidgee thing I inked over with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink.  I think I was too heavy handed as the resist isn't as clean as it could be - next time I think I'll try it with clear or white embossing powder.  On the card base, I sponge inked a faint band in the same colour and over stamped with a tiny stamp.  Layering the panel over that, I then added the butterfly (a magazine freebie) and the sentiment.

Hugs, Sxx
