Garden Sprite


Created for the Gothic Arch Challenge. I used the Wrinkle Free Distress Technique for the background with Faded Jeans ink. This was then sponged over with VersasMagic Chalk ink in Thatched Straw, and Distress Ink in Dusty Concord. A floral stamp was added to the background in Faded Jeans. Torn paper was sponged with the same inks, then applied to the top and bottom of the card. The Collage image was then applied, and some text edged with the same inks to finish.
