Our challenge this week is sponsored by DRS Designs and I want to say thanks for providing us some awesome stamps to play with. My card features Irish Friendship Greeting (348H) and Three Butterflies (744F).
I have always admired cards that have those cool backgrounds that have been spritzed with that stuff that I don't know what it's called. I created my own using Distress Ink and water on my Stamp-a-jig plastic sheet. Then I just hit my card stock onto the plastic to pick up the ink. I loved the effect!
I also made my own flowers using an .svg from My Time Made Easy. I am so happy with card. I hope you like it, too.

Stamps: Irish Friendship Greeting (348H), Three Butterflies (744F) (DRS Designs), Live Love, Laugh (Raisin Boat)

Tools: Cricut, Branch svg, Spiral Daisy svg (MTME), corner rounder (SU!), watercolor brush

6 Encouraging Thoughts:
Super background, very clever. Love the Irish Blessing stamp, so pretty. Fun handmade flowers, too.
Melissa this is so amazing! I love the spritzed background. The butterflies and the sentiment are just awesome.
Gorgeous Melissa! Love the cool background. So beautiful!
Love how the background turned out - I want to try that! Did you use a reinker or just press the inkpad onto the plastic? Lovely sentiment & the flowers are sweet!
Great card, Melissa! I love the bg you made, and those butterflies are gorgeous!
WOW this is beautiful.
Thanks for reminding me about the prize but since its a while back don't worry. I love making cards using sketches and often forget theres sometimes a prize.
