hi there,
Here is my card for the F4A challenge; lots of dots. If you have never tried stamping with water and Distress inks give it a try. I pulled out a mask for my bkg. that was all dots and circles. First I rubbed Distress inks onto my white cs then I laid my mask on top of that and sponged water over the mask onto the ink. Since Distress inks react with water, a dotted pattern was left behind when the mask was removed.
For the image panel, once again I sponged on the ink then stamped the bkg. with a Penny Black stamp dipped in water. When all was dry, I stamped the fronds and sentiment.
thanks for looking
