This is for today's Mixability challenge to sketch with pencils on our cardas well as for Ardyth's DTGD Challenge. I used Gesso in white and grey over a thesaurus page then spritzed with some blue reinker spray. It was a little darker than I wanted so I took a baby wipe and wiped off some of it. I stamped my rain drops. It was still too dark so I layered on some more white Gesso and wiped off some more. I stamped my solid images and took off most of the ink while it was still wet. I then took my pencil and sketched in the outline and went around the puddle that I created with the wiping. This is a 6 1/4 x 3 1/4" card.

What a perfect effect to go with the sentiment. Love that you sketched over the stamped image, way to go! Thanks for playing in the Mix-ability Challenge.
