Watercolor Trio meets Presto Paper

I have been preparing for a presentation I am giving this weekend at a seminar here in Michigan.  The presentation will be on doing workshops.... Something I have always loved doing!

My friend asked me to do this presentation because that is exactly how I built my business... it's the foundation to a successful Stampin' Up! business, and I feel I have lots of great information to share.  (This leads me to 2 things... one, if you haven't gotten your workshop scheduled for the new Mini Catalog yet, we need to do that!  Also, if you've thought of doing what I do, I can show you how to do successful workshops to get you up and running!)

Oh, my presentation.... I will be showing some of the projects I do at my workshops... so, today you are getting a sneak peek of one of those projects (shhhhh, don't tell!)

This card uses my new favorite stamp set.... Watercolor Trio from the Summer Mini Catalog.

I used melon mambo and soft suede.  Now, the gridish (is that a word... grid-ish??) paper is from the new Presto Specialty Paper in the Summer Mini Catalog.  I used Melon Mambo ink with a dauber to apply the ink to the paper... the paper has embossed prints on it, and the ink doesn't stick to the embossed parts of the paper..... Presto!  Pretty patterns before your eyes.

I then sprayed the inked paper with our New Smooch Spray from the Summer Mini Catalog... this is some cool stuff!  You can spritz your projects to add a splatter of glitzy color, or, like I did here... spray your project then take a sponge or tissure and rub the shimmery spray all over the cardstock..... Pri-tay!

Ok, I promise to post another sample from my presentation tomorrow... and just a teaser... it will coordinate with this fun card!
