CC415 Midnight Embrace

 My card for this week's Colour Challenge - More Old Muse with dessert option to watercolour.

I chose to do a watercolour bg - I used Midnight Muse & Old Olive ink and, as I do not have anything in the More Mustard colour, I tried to get as close as I could with pastels. Once I coloured my c/s I sprayed with water and let the colours blend together. I stamped my flowers, cut them out, gave them a coat of liquid pearls for the sheen and then put more on for the pearls. Popped these flowers up over my leaf foliage which is a Spellbinders die.

Thank you so much for taking a look!

Love that watercolor bg Sue! Love the color of your flowers (fav color is blue) and the liquid pearls you used for the stammens. Will have to remember that. They look so lovely popped up over your mat with the ribbon.
