Make it Monday #25

wow, can't believe this is the first papertrey ink make it monday challenge i've participated in...especially considering one lucky gal will be picked to win a pti stamp set! :)  i always watch the videos but never seem to have a chance to whip up a card...guess i'm feeling extra creative this week after attending stamp-a-faire! thanks to heather for this week's challenge to color using white pigment ink. the only thing i would recommend after trying out this technique is to use a darker colored cardstock because it's a little difficult to see the white on the aqua mist paper that i used. i had to apply lots of pressure and layers of ink to make the clouds show up a little, and it started to smudge up my paper fibers in those areas. i just used a plain old q-tip to do this. but overall, i like the idea and like how my card turned out :)
