I smooshed! I've tried and tried and could never get the hang of it. This time I used cellophane and it went much better. It was easier to smoosh around. I'm not crazy about the colors I used and should have stopped a little sooner and not added so much but I was so happy to be doing it I got carried away. This is my first card for the Heat Wave class. I clear embossed the flower and leaves and also the sentiment by Dylusions. Be kind to one another and prayers for France.

Your smooshing turned out beautifully Brenda! A lot of people will use acetate to pick up their ink and smoosh around because they have better control of it. I've never tried it that way, but want too. You did an amazing job with it and it isn't to much either, I love it! Love the flower as well but really love that sentiment! Hugs, Brenda

I think your colors are wonderful. It looks like mid-summer lawns with the fantastic yellow of the pretty flower. I'll try the cellophane idea...TFS that tip. I've not excelled using the acrylic block or the plastic acetate stuff. I can smoosh on a craft mat. You did good with this one! Perfect sentiment too. TFS & Hugs
