CC2C week #5

Here is my tag made for the Compendium of Curiosities Vol. 2 Challenge using the technique on page 48 - shattered stains. Quite a fun technique, but you have to wait for things to dry - tough when you're impatient and want to play :-).  The technique is on my flowers cut from white chipboard, kind of a black-eyed susan shape - maybe I'm getting ready for next Saturday's Preakness - isn't the winning horse is draped in a blanket of black-eyed susans?  I placed them on a "mop-up tag" - one laying around to pick up left over inks, in this case they are Liquitex Acrylic inks in blues and greens.  I added a bit of embossed texture, drew in stems and leaves, and found words from a package of Idea-ology Chit Chat Stickers and combined them into a sentence that would fit.
