After I dried the paper, I ink blended with the same Distress Inks. I used my Hero Arts Layering Swallowtail to stamp my focal image. Because I used Versafine Onyx Black ink, I was able to add clear embossing powder and heat set it.
Finally, I embellished my card with some of the new release sequins. This card was quick to make and a lot of fun. Now for more fun stuff.....
