Close up:

I did do faux tiles technique again on this card, but the different is instead of rubbing the whole faux tile with one ink, i did "colour" it with few colours used my chalks.Use scor pal to make diamond shape tiles. Applied versamark onto the whole page. while the versamark ink still wet, apply chalks on top of it. Do the colours and the pattern colour that you like. Once it is done, highlight the line use white gel pen. For Finishing touch i applied diamond glaze on top of the coloured faux tile. I just simply love the glazed look.it make it looks like real tile :)

My hand still feeling "stiff" during the colouring process so may have some rough patches here and there.. :P

So here is the look from the side :
