I stamped the flower image from Hero Arts in white ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Then I applied four different distress inks to the background with foam applicators. I'm really happy with how this card turned out. I guess I'm skipping spring and jumping to summer based on the colors I chose for this card!Here is my second card:
This one has a similar layout to the first card. I stopped at Michaels yesterday and found the peacock feather stamp and a package of two Smooch Spritz sprays (Citrus Tickle and Splash--love the names!). The colors of the sprays made me think of peacock feathers and I thought it would be fun to use them with the stamp. The card has a lot more sparkle in real life. I thought the sentiment from an older SU! set was a perfect accompaniment.Thanks for stopping by! Have a good week!

Your first card is just stunning. I haven't tried this technique, but now I know it's on my list. Thanks for the inspiration.
These are both beautiful. I am going to give these techniques a try.

Good Golly! These are mighty pretty. I love the stamps used. Is that peacock feather an Inkadinkadoo one? Me want! The colors in both cards are so so beautiful. They engender warmth. So inspiring!
Thank you for your lovely comment too on my blog. I am still smiling stupidly from reading. Thanks so very much!
These turned out beautiful. I must say I am very partial to key lime!
