Super Textured ATC

Hi again guys! Today, I have a quick little lotus inspired ATC.   The supplies I used are listed below.  It all starts with this piece of card stock that a little pot of pain tipped over on.  I figured, hey, let's make a background rather than trying to scoop it up.   I added more paint and smoothered it all over that piece of cardstock with my palette knife allowing it to keep as much texture as possible and I set it aside.  That was months ago and here is it becoming something beautiful!    I added a touch of gray ink to the white areas of the paper and cut it down to ATC size.   Next, came a ripped scrap of Asian vintage text. I then took some of that same vintage paper and inked it a bit with my Niji metalic watercolors in green.  I wrote the phrase "No mud - No lotus".  It is just something I have always loved. I adhered that to the ATC with a bit of gray scrap under that.  To top it all ...
