AIR16-PILLOW-Pillow Rose combo

This is for the Nighty Night AIR16 Challenge and the June's Rose challenge.

The stamp is Stampin Up Watercolor Garden. I used pink distress ink, spritzed the bloom with water and stamped it. Lots of water remained on my regular cardstock, so I blotted it off, then stamped over with regular distress ink. I then used a positioning tool to stamp the leaves and the stem.

The background was made using the pillow top technique and green distress ink and a round blending tool. My acetate was a piece of packaging and was sturdy and didn't move around, so I was able to get better control.
