Welcome! Today I have been water coloring with Distress Oxide Inks....so much fun as I never know what will turn out. I began by stamping a butterfly from Gina K's Take Flight set with GKD Amalgam Black ink on watercolor paper and embossing with Clear EP. I then water colored the image with a water brush using DOI Fossilized Amber, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, and Peacock Feathers. I created the water colored background with Faded Jeans and Broken China using a brush and water. I like the effect that I achieved. I added a mat of GKD Little Boy Blue CS and a card base of Ivory. Stamped the sentiment from the same GKD set with Black Versafine ink.

I especially like how the background turned out. Did you apply the colors in patches to get the color variation or did it just turn out that way. Nice job!
