Hugs Card With Watercolor Background

Happy Monday!  I'm popping in with a card for Day 4, Week 2, of the Technique Junkies WWDB Challenge.  

 I used distress inks to color my image.

Technique Junkies Stamp Link:
Poppies And Roses Background S813 

I stamped the Poppies And Roses Background image onto watercolor paper with distress inks, and painted it with a water brush and distress inks. 

I used some dies from my stash to cut the background, and the 'hugs.'  I layered the card.  I also colored some of the roses from the image and added them with foam tape with some metallic string.

Inside, I stamped the image lightly, and added a strip of the leftover front piece.  A soft image and some distress on the envelope finish the ensemble.  
 
I will send this to a friend who is recovering from surgery.
