Tutorial Time Speedy TV

It is my turn to do the tutorial and its about using plant materials. Here in the desert
 it has been a long hot summer and there are few flowers this time of year.
 That means I didnt have much to work with. I used several different
 materials to show different results. You can find the tutorial here.The fun thing
 about this technique is that you  get a wide variety of results!! 
They will all have a soft water colored look to them.
Some will have distinct shapes some will all run together.
Also colors change..these were a pinkish lavender yet they
printed almost a coral color. Thats the fun of this
 technique, always a surprise!
For my card I have used one of the papers I made with
 some little pink snap flowers and potato vine foliage. 
After it dried I ran it thru the dotted swiss folder and then stitched it
 onto the base. The bottom corners werepunched and then another layer 
of white added underneath. The ribbon
was tied on and the sentiment stamped on the Spellbinder tag. 

This is the winners Stamp Set

Davi,
Gorgeous card. Your use of the technique is awesome. Mine, unfortunately, after several tries - isn't what it should be - especially after looking at yours. Wow, I love the extra details and the lovely bow. Wow!!!
