supplies: white, black, denim blue, and mint cardstock, Impression Obsession Wooden Plank cling, Hero Arts Charcoal, and broken china, cracked pistachio, and faded jeans distress oxide inks, Tim Holtz Floral stencil, an old Pink Paislee garden text stamp, Simon Leanna butterfly die, Tim Holtz Big Chat stickers, Doodlebug blue enamel dot
I started by stamping my plank background in charcoal, then sponging it with broken china and cracked pistachio oxide inks. Next I covered it with the stencil and sponged through with faded jeans, followed by the text stamp in a random fashion (pistachio over the broken china areas and vice-versa). The panel was then allowed to dry naturally, then it was trimmed and framed with a denim blue and affixed to the mint card base.
I chose a butterfly to go along with the garden feel and the stickers tied in well with that. I REALLY love the way these 3 oxide inks look together!

Very pretty color combo!
I love flowers against a plank...so this one is a big hit with me.
I like the fancy little butterfly and your-label-maker like sentiment! This is lovely Lin!
Gorgeous background with the woodplank and stencil, Lin! Hey - did I tell you that you enabled me on that background?! Picked one up a couple weeks ago and need to get it inked up!!
What a stunning card Lin - love it

very pretty Lin. I think I need to buy some oxide inks.
Hi Lin! I have exactly the same color Hybiscus in the garden and it is flowering just like yours... your cards remain beautiful!
