CYCI #128 - Sketch Challenge

This week's challenge at canyoucaseit.com was a sketch challenge.  I created the card above for this challenge by trying out some new techniques.  The sketch itself is a pretty simple one, so I decided to add a little pizzazz by doing a decorative background.  I first stamped watercolor paper with the stamp of my choice using the versa mark watermark ink onto watercolor paper.  Then I embossed it with white embossing powder and painted over the entire piece with watercolors.  It created this neat resist effect.  I then cut and stamped the sentiment, added a couple embellishments and mounted it on black card stock, that was then attached to a white card base.  Here is an image of the inside of the card.
