There is beautiful technique that makes the gorgeous watercolor roses that you can learn by
clicking here. I loved the idea and decided to try the same concept to create a background and I like the results.

I randomly stamped the flowers (SU Infinite Goodness) with Brocade Blue pigment ink and embossed them with clear embossing powder. Then I sprayed the paper with a mist of water until it was really wet. I used a wet watercolor brush to pick up a drop of reinker and apply it to the flowers, letting it spread out a little bit. I sprayed it a little more after applying the color to make the color bleed a little more. I used SU bashful blue and barely banana reinkers for the color.

When it was dry, I layered it with the same colors of cardstock, added some ribbon, pins and brass butterfly charm.

And here's the inside.
I like this technique and I think it can be used in so many ways. The roses in the tutorial linked above are gorgeous and I may just have to get that stamp now that I've seen it!
