For my card this month I stamped my image using Versamark and then sprinkled clear embossing powder. I then used a couple of distress inks and a water brush to color over the image for a watercolor effect. I mounted the panel onto a base that was dry embossed with a Sizzix folder. I really like the clean and simple look and the card is perfect for when you need something quick.
