Misted Flowers

I have only done a couple misting cards and this one is far the best! To mist you colour the stamp with markers, or dye ink and then gently mist it with water and stamp. You don't need to use watercolour paper either, I used whisper white. It gives the image a muted look. Very nice.
Stamps: Stampin Up Garden Silhouettes, Floral background, teeny tiny wishes
Paper: Ridinghood Red, basic black, whisper white
Ink: Ridinghood red, garden green, more mustard, pumpkin pie, basic black
Other: ribbon, brads
This card is for the Timless Tuesday Challenge found here.
