Metallic Watercolors with Wings

I dug through the drawer of "wings" stamps (yes, I have a collection of stamps of wings and winged creatures) to find this old favorite.  After heat embossing the image, I painted with metallic watercolors and popped the image up with foam tape.  "Scatter Joy" is a very old sentiment on a foam stamp...one I would really like to have duplicated in rubber. It works with the CAS Mix Up challenge.

This is awesome. Thanks for giving the watercolors used. Had no idea it was metallic. On collage stamps, I often wonder how to put a sentiment. Very clever of you and the embossed background. All add great depth to your card.

Oooh, love this beautiful old stamp, and your metallic watercoloring is super pretty. I, too, have a collection of winged things. Anything with wings, including birds. I'll have to assign more space to them soon.
