Tonight I have a little sneak for you using a stamp from Watercolor Backdrops. I experimented with this one, so I hope you like the outcome.

My card base is Smooth White Card Stock and I grabbed my Sour Apple, Berrylicious, and Grape Jelly Ink Refills for this image. I put a drop of the refill ink in the lid of the corresponding ink pad color and used a slightly wet paintbrush to paint the ink onto the stamp. This allowed me to blend the colors together and overlap them a bit. After the ink dried completely, I stamped a sentiment from Simply Fabulous Sayings in Black Licorice Ink and then added some MIX-ables Sheer Shimmer Mist over the top of that panel. GASP!! This is the first time I've used it and I'm mad at myself for not using it before! YUM-OH! You can sort of see the shimmer in this photo - it's difficult to photograph.
Be sure to stop by the MFT Blog for a complete list of designers playing along in today's countdown AND find out how you can win some MFT goodies!
