MFP Stamps Challenge #44 - Anything Goes!


This week's challenge at MFP Stamps is Anything Goes!

For my card, I used the Huge Blooms stamp set.  I stamped the image onto watercolor paper, then used distress inks (the small cubes) direct to the image and a little dab using a different color around the image.  Spritzed it with water to get the ink to flow a bit around the image.  

We hope you'll share your anything goes cards and/or projects with us this week.  You can find the challenge HERE.
