Aqua and Chevon and a new technique!

I was excited to see Chevon for a challenge theme at The Greeting Farm..i have several pads of paper with chevon patterns..this one is my favorite though..as i've used it twice now.  As usual when i start with a challenge i look for a sketch too and found a good one at Simon Says Stamp.

Now for my own personal challenge, i thought i'd try the "almost" no line technique.  LOL, i wanted to do the no lines, but didn't get quite there with it..
i used Memento Sand and stamped the TGF Gracie and gave it a go.  This is my first attempt..now i need to go watch some YouTube videos so i can get it right.

Here is my card:

 

Ok so the die in the corner is from Joy Crafts (available at Dutch Paper Crafts), the rest of the paper all came in the same paper pad.  I  used two flowers from Orchid as well.

Here is the sketch i used from Simon Says Stamp:
