Jennifer at Styles Ink described her current One Layer Wednesday challenge as a bit tricksy. I tend to agree. She was very strict, limiting us to two stamps and neither could be a sentiment. She also limited us to heat embossing or colouring with markers!
I was a bit stumped until I remembered these stamps from the Extreme collection. I coloured directly onto the splat image with markers then misted it before stamping on the card front. The surfer and the skater are both embossed in black.
It is always good to have a few boy cards in reserve, the inspiration does not always come when I need it!

This is yet another take on the masked and sponged background. I chose the colours of water and the splodge from Extreme Elements as my main focus. There are some faint stars in there as well. As I have ink refills for some of the colours I was using I dipped a small paint brush in the ink and flicked it randomly over the design. I then flicked some water and finally positioned the sentiment.
