Not sure if it's ok to put this card in for this technique as I don't have markers and used distress inks instead but I did mist them and love the effect. I used the Penny Black Hibiscus stamp which is kind of a water colour effect in itself and coloured it with pink, green and yellow inks, misted with water and stamped. I added yellow stickles on the stamens and layered on yellow and pale green bazzil card lifted up on dimension pads. DP is Basic Grey Two Scoops. Embellished with pale green organza ribbon, pink square gems and a scalloped edge cut on the last pale yellow layer. Sentiment rub-on by Doodlebug.

Had to place this in my faves first. I love your layering! Your dp is wondering with just the right hint of colors! Perfect brads, too. Yikes, this is just one stunning and wonderful card. My complements.

I found your card while browsing through the *Misting* gallery. I LOVE it!! I love Penny Black stamps and I love hibiscus (Florida-born). I saw this stamp in a new PB catalog, but haven't seen it for sale anywhere. You did a marvelous job with this card; it is soft, but striking. It goes into my favorites! Thank you.
