Distress Ink Stamping Part Two - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Make it Colorful

Here is my second card sharing the same method of my prior post, except this is the first generation stamping the image and I save the second generation stamped image for another card.  This time I used Distress Inks of Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade and Gathered Twigs.    I spritzed water on the stamp after inking and then stamped the image on watercolor paper.   I then spritzed with water again and stamped a second image with the ink left over on the stamp.  I saved that for another card that I will share later.      I made this into a Mother's Day card with a sentiment from a Simon Says Stamp set called Best Mom Ever.  

Stamps:   Stampendous Butterfly Trio, SSS Best Mom Ever 

Inks: Distress Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade and Gathered Twigs, Versamark

Papers:  SU Soft Suede, Watercolor paper

Tools: MFT Blueprints 20, SSS Mini Hearts die, Heidi Swap Gold Color Shine, Ranger Liquid Pearl Embossing Powder

Distress Ink Stamping - Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Make it Colorful

Today I am sharing two cards (separate post for the second card) created using Distress Ink Stamping along with water to make an ink blended background.    First up is a card created with blues and brown distress ink.    I used Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon and Gathered Twigs.   I used a stamp from Stampendous called Butterfly Trio.     I inked up the stamp with the Distress inks and spritzed with water to get the ink moving.    Then I stamped the image on watercolor paper.    I actually stamped two impressions. The image below is the second generation of the stamp.   I spritzed with water and stamped on watercolor paper and then stamped.  Spritzed with water and stamped again to get a lighter impression and used for the card below.    I saved the initial image for another card.    I used some more distress ink and water and then flicked the card with some ink splatter.   I added some Heidi Swap Gold Color Shine to add some sparkle.
