Here’s my card using new stamps from Impression Obsession (F9023 Sea Grass, D13123 Sketchy Chevron Border, D9025 Summer Pot Small, B9008 For You). Colorbox Fluid Chalk inks, Premium Dye ink refill (Cornflower), pigment inks and embossing powder from Clearsnap. Fuschia Flower Soft and Liquid Pearls.

Splatter background with Cornflower Premium Die ink refill (a couple drops diluted with water).  I used an old paintbrush to splatter.

Stamp F9023 Sea Grass twice with Dark Moss Fluid chalk ink. Add some embossing paste along the left side of the panel. Stamp into the embossing paste while wet with D13123 Sketchy Chevron Border. I then stamped off some of the extra embossing paste on the top right of the panel. Let dry.

Squirt a small amount of Clearsnap Premium Dye Sprays! (Chocolate) onto a paper plate and add a couple drops of water. Dip your paintbrush in and creat a drip on your card. Repeat until you have all the drips you want.

Swipe Pumpkin Spice Fluid Chalk ink onto white cardstock.

Ink D9025 Summer Pot Small stamp with a combination of Olive and Surf Pigment Inks and then I dotted the rubber with white refill.

Heat emboss with Top Boss Clear embossing powder.

Add a little shading on edges with a sponge and Chestnut Roan Fluid Chalk ink.

Sponge edges with Chestnut Roan Fluid Chalk ink. Add Fuchsia Flower Soft. Add liquid pearls to flowers. Smudge a little liquid pearls onto card. Cut out pot and adhere with Kool Tak Foam. Stamp sentiment (B9008 For You) with Dark Moss ink.
