Today's card features another charity shop find...the 'Resplendent Roses' background stamp by Phill Martin for Sentimentally Yours. I had a little play around with it using some different embossing powders and inks, and picked this one to turn into a card. I stamped it on to watercolour paper using Versamark Ink, then heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I then watercoloured over the top using Distress Inks in shades of pinks, red, oranges & yellows (Scattered Straw, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Fired Brick, Festive Berries & Seedless Preserves).
I added a sentiment from a Lili of the Valley set and a few clear sequins...really sparkly in real life...but a pain to try to photograph!
