Over the weekend, I played with some of my Brushos and water reactive powders; I finally located them since my move and realized I hadn't played with them in a while. My goal was to make several backgrounds that I could use for Falliday 2023 and other challenges and to not make such a mess of them, keeping some white space and separate colors. The key for me was less water, not move the powders too much and patience.
This is for Holly's FF23 challenge-poinsettias. I've had these dies and the poinsettia embossing folder for a VERY LONG TIME, NEVER USED. You can barely see the ef but I dragged a gold metallic pad over it to bring it out a bit. I cut the poinsettias out of metallic white papers and used the Lunar Paste on the centers and the leaves. I'm continuing with adding a postage stamp to most if not all of my Falliday projects.
This is also for Saturday's IC. I was inspired by the 10th photo in Amy's thumbnails.
Thanks for the challenges!

This is gorgeous! I'm so happy you used your embossing folder for this challenge! That deer stamp is an awesome addition to this beautiful card as it picks up those colors in your background.

I could not remember the last time I used my Brushos either and was thrilled to bring them out for Fallidays. Your background on this card is just gorgeous.
