My first attempt didn't really show all that well. My 2nd attempt, I used the bristol that Kathy suggested and a different e.f. Sponged first with old paper distress and then added some DOX fossilized amber. Added some yellow stickles.

The stickles makes your flowers shine through. I like the subtle background though , too! I just put the ink pad directly on my backgrounds because it was taking too lone to sponge on the ink. Then I sponged off the excess. Got some nice dark contrast that way.

Shirl, this is just gorgeous! This card really reminds me of wildflowers on a misty morning, and I love that! Your color choices are gorgeous and the use of gold stickles highlights your flowers so beautifully. Your dsp peeking out on the bottom layer is really lovely too. I wish I had your gift for using gorgeous dsp and combining it with your beautiful stamped images! ~Karen.
