Faux Watercolor Spritz

this is my all time favorite technique: ink the stamp, spritz, stamp! so this is for the Stamping with Shimmer Sprays Challenge over on the Moxie Fab blog. so i inked the left one with Memento Pear Tart ink, spritzed with Smooch Spritz, Pearl, and stamped. the right one is stamped in Memento Bamboo Leaves, spritzed and stamped. the center is inked with both colors and then spritzed and stamped. the spritzing gives the illusion of watercoloring because it blends the ink for you. and the great thing about the Smooch Spritz is that is gives this great shimmer!!
i just wish you could see the shimmer! the background paper is SEI, and sentiment is from PTI Fillable Frames.
