Water Color Trio

i'm really liking this new stamp set out of the new Summer mini catalog! The words are pretty and all very much used as well as the flower/leaf images i think are so subtle and soft looking as they portray the look of 'water coloring' w/o actually doing it! I gave it a smidge of vintage w/ some torn edges and using my "fast growing favorite tool" the color spritzer tool just around the flower image and the lower left corner of the card.
by inking up the butterfly good w/ melon mambo and then stamping it off twice b4 i stamped it on the circle so you just get a very faint image. Then put the sentiment right over top in old olive. The little dots below the 'so much' i did using the stampin write marker along w/ the matte pack to the get them aligned evenly.

stamping a bit on the inside of the card always gives it a nice finished look as well!
