I decided to try some of Heather T's wet stamping techniques, something easy or so I thought. How wet is wet is the issue. After four tries I had some success wetting the paper after coloring the stamp with markers and spritzing it. The colors started to bleed a little bit which was enough for me. I heated it with the heat gun to keep it becoming too distorted. I opted to quit while I was ahead and not water color the background but reached for my trusty Air Sick mini brick stencils. The flourish was from the internet which I printed on ink jet acetate and pierced with a Pergamano piercing too, then pierced the card and stitched with a beading needle. Sponged the edges with Memento ink a bit.
Thanks for looking.

FABULOUS card, Nancy! Beautiful "bled" irises and I love the subtle brick. The stitching is wonderful, too. Your cards are soooo amazing, just like you!
