I got a few bottles of I ZINKs to play around with, and tried some watercolor backgrounds. I just love how the pigment holds its shape and color strength even when you add water, and created this background with big vibrant splotches, which reminded me of butterfly coloring. I had just created the letterpress greeting panel with the same ink, so I suddenly saw how to pull the two together to create this card. The watercolor paper fibers pulled up a little when I pulled the letterpress plate off, but I love that distressed look in combination with the elegance of the script. I think it sums up my approach to crafting

Yes, very lovely and "Boho Chic"! Those four stitches on either side are the perfect detail. I see you wasted no time using those Izinks!
