Ten-Minute Tuesday

Today is my favorite day of the week...Ten-Minute Tuesday!  I used the colors from Just Add Ink and did my favorite technique for the background.
 
I inked up my largest clear block with Sahara Sand and then stamped some splotches from Gorgeous Grunge in Coastal Cabana and Off the Grid in Sahara Sand right on the block. I gently spritzed the block with water and then stamped it onto Very Vanilla cardstock for the background effect. 
I used five of the photopolymer stamps from Another Thank You and stuck them on one clear block. I love that they are clear and I can do that!  Looking at this card, I think this would make a great easy Christmas card, just replace the thanks sentiments with a Christmas sentiment and an ornament, and possibly replace the splotches with some snowflakes??? Hmmm...I think I am going to try that and see how it turns out! :)

Stamp Sets: Another Thank You, Gorgeous Grunge, Off the Grid
Cardstock: Coastal Cabana, Raspberry Ripple, Very Vanilla
Ink: Coastal Cabana, Raspberry Ripple, Sahara Sand
Accessories: Rhinestones
