Create a layered background using blended distress inks in blue and green tones, then stamp and emboss a floral design. Add a bleaching technique with water to lift colour from the flower heads, creating a subtle highlight effect that makes the blooms stand out against the inked background.

Consigli dalla puntata

• Watch your fingerprints as you work; use the ink pad lid to hold your card in place if needed to avoid marking the artwork.
• The bleaching technique works particularly well on watercolour cardstock; results may be more subtle on standard white cardstock.
• If the bleaching technique doesn't produce the desired effect, add white gouache or gel pen highlights to enhance the flowers.
