Retro Rubber Challenge #36, April Showers!

Challenge #36 is live at the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog!  Come join the fun!  The challenge this time is titled "April showers".  Simply create a project in this theme, combined with using a stamp one year old or older.  Easy and fun!  Here is the challenge graphic this time:

And here is the project I completed for this challenge:

 

 

 

To create this card, I used a piece of white cardstock and a stencil, by TCW called "Aspen Trees".  I used various colors of Tim Holtz Distress Ink and a sponge on top the stencil, to create an image on the white cardstock.  Keeping the stencil in place, I used a spritzer and spritzed water onto the paper and stencil.  I dabbed off the excess water then used my heat gun to dry the design.  Next, I used an older sentiment stamp set, from Inkadinkado called "Thank you words".  I selected one sentiment and used Memento black ink, and stamped on the sponged design.  Next, I grabbed a flower from Mark Richards, added some Tim Holtz ink to it, then placed it on the card.  At the bottom, I tied silver cording, and placed a sticker from SRM Press.  I backed the image with black cardstock, then placed it all atop white cardstock using dimensional adhesive.  Finally, I placed all this on a folded and trimmed black cardstock card.
