I used a white paper with texture, masked off a square area and sponged away using shaded lilac DI - love the color as it's not too purple and not too blue.
I removed the tape and stamped a flower image using an uninked stamp from Fiskars, heat set and colored it it in using some blue, purple and green ink pads and a brush.
I used my favorite sentiment stamp - love it because it's decorative and perfect for almost any occasion, then added the finished panel on foam onto the card base.
This card is for:

Simply beautiful. I love making cards with a colour wash/stamped background and simple elegant stamping. This is a lovely version of that style. Happy Sunday. Zx
Pia this is just so beautiful with all the elements placed so perfectly.

Hi Pia, I finally got a chance to sit down and do some visiting. Really enjoyed your CASE card, (like even better than your inspiration, but Shhh!) The texture paper is _so_ wonderful with your design, and the DI ink sponged so beautifully, very delicate shading too. Love the sweet floral image, and you're right: the sentiment is just perfect, and so versatile for many occasions. A truly lovely & elegant card...very serene in the feel of it. TFS & Have a wonderful week.
Stunning! Love your colours and design!
Really beautiful love the masked square and beautiful stamp
