I masked part of the cardstock with torn post-it paper, sponged over it with purple and green distress inks. I removed the masking paper, stamped the Delicate Leaf Branch and script, added some highlights with a Molotow marker. I splattered some watered down ink over the background  I've also colored the image with some watercolorpencils. DONE!

Another card with the same stamps partially stamped on a tag:

I used a background from my stash, which has been made with glimmermists. I heat embossed the wild herbs in black. The wasp has been stamped in a dark brown ink, as well as the script. I added some highlights with a white Molotow marker. I colored the wasp with a watercolor pencilI also doodled a frame around the edges with a green and white Molotow marker.

Another card with the same stamps / techniques:
(The background was done with bistre and household wrap, though)

HOPE YOU LIKE IT!
