On wc card stock, I embossed the flowers in white and then watercolored the flowers with a some blue so they would have some shadows and depth, and then did the bg. Splattered with diluted inks of the same colors. Gold embossed the sentiment and used a gold foil strip as well as a blue strip for a border.

Your flowers look amazing...the blue shadows are lovely. It reminds me of Monet's water lilies. Blues and yellows are such a wonderful color combo. Cards like tnis make me wish that I had more success with watercolors.
This is just so pretty. I am such a fan of white embossing and watercolor, and you have done it beautifully here. Great take on the challenge, thanks so much for playing along with us this week over at the Mod Squad!
