I applied ink from the reinkers onto glossy white paper using cotton balls. I didn't think the pink was dark enough so when it dried I reapplied the pink over the existing pink to make it darker. Then I stamped the image with versamark and used black embossing powder.

How very lovely, and what an interesting technique. I love that the colors peek through the black, giving the impression of various colored roses. Love the little bows, too!

I was just playing around with this gorgeous stamp two days ago, it's one of my favorites. I love how you shaded the flowers with today's colors, it's lovely!

Amazing card! One of my all time favorite background stamps which I have long forgotten. I'm headed to my room right now to find that stamp and use it this week! Thanks so much for the inspiration!!
