This is hops and barley. So my H things are hops, "hoppy" birthday, and I used distress on the houndstooth background stamp and then I added water to a small brush and spread the ink where it was touching the image.

I love it! What a fabulous image of the barley and hops. The herringbone bg is fab, and I really love the way you watered the bg around the image. Gorgeous. Into my favs.

Liz, how creative! I was wondering why it said "Hoppy." The hops and barley image would be great for my DH's birthday as he is a beer connoisseur. Clever card for the letter H. tfs

Love these gorgeous hops and the watery way you softened the houndstooth behind them!! What a sensational masculine birthday design, Liz!! It looks like spilled beer!!

Very creative for the letter H Liz. I love the hops and barley theme along with your fun houndstooth background! Your watercoloring adds a nice softness to your card that I really like. ~Karen.

I rather like the effect you got by adding water to the houndstooth bg and moving it around with your brush, Liz. So this is what Hops looks like; I never knew~
