It's my turn to host the Mix-Ability challenge this week! So excited, and I hope you'll join us! Check the Mix-Ability Challenge Forum for all the challenge details!
I used the Orchids set from Flourishes on my card samples. For this card, I watercolored the image using a waterbrush and ink from an Adirondack dye inkpad.

I am just loving this black/grey look! It really makes any image look so different! This card is a beauty!
