Step 1 of 12

Swipe the brown Izink Pigment ink pad, from the Vintage Collection, randomly in from the edges of the white card (6 3/4 x 4 3/4"), as shown here.  

Step 2 of 12

Repeat step 1, using the pink Izink Pigment ink pad. 

Step 3 of 12

Ink up the script stamp, from the Beautiful Notes Stamp Collection, with the brown Izink Pigment ink, and stamp randomly over your background. 

Step 4 of 12

Ink up the textured dots stamp, from the same stamp set, with the pink Izink Pigment ink, and stamp randomly on to your background. 

Dry the ink thoroughly, as Pigment inks are slow drying, and will smudge. 

Step 5 of 12

Ink up the floral corner stamp, from the HOPE Stamp Collection, with the Onyx Black Versafine, and stamp in the top left corner of your background. 

Step 6 of 12

Ink up this lady, from the Create Together Club Find The Sunshine Stamp Collection, with the Versafine.

Stamp her centrally, but so her hair just falls off the right hand edge, of the card. 

Step 7 of 12

Reink the corner floral stamp, and stamp it in the bottom, right corner. 

Step 8 of 12

Apply the Seedless Preserves Distress Ink on to your craft/glass mat, and add a little water.

Loosely paint the stamped flower heads.  

Step 9 of 12

Once all the ink and paint is dry, add water to the Confetti Paint, and splatter it over your artwork, being as generous as you like, with the splats...I like a lot!!

If possible, allow the Confetti Paint to dry naturally, as it gives a better, textured effect. 

Step 10 of 12

Ink up the sentiment, from Find The Sunshine Stamp Collection, with the Versafine, and stamp bottom left, of your artwork. 

Step 11 of 12

Adhere your artwork on to your black, top folding card blank. 

Step 12 of 12

To finish, use a black pen to draw a decorative, wiggly frame, around your artwork. 

You made it!
