Indigo Inspired

This one-layer card is inspired by Japanese indigo fabric.  I masked off the card and heavily sponged my NBUS Memory Box stencil with ink.  (NBUS because I thought it was solid with the leaves cut out but it was the other way 'round.)  I next misted it with Shimmer spritz and water.  After it had dried, I flicked large droplets of water by tapping a paintbrush.  Finally I diecut cut some MB birds and placed a few in the foliage with foam tape. 

The Details:  Recollections 110 lb cardstock, Memory Box Garden Leafy Branches stencil and little birds die, painter's tape, Scotch foam tape, Distress Ink Chipped Sapphire

I'm entering this in The Crafting Cafe Monochrome, Daring Cardmakers Stencil Revolution, Keep It Simple #49 No Stamps, Addicted to Stamps & More #114 CAS, Darnell's NBUS #2

I also timed myself to see if I could make the 15 Minute Little Tangles challenge.  Um, no.  It took me like 5 minutes just to mask!  Since I missed the target time, I splattered on larger water drops.
