Playing the Color Throwdown challenge and ink smooshing with Craftangles liquid watercolour.

Hello! I am playing a challenge after years!
I came across this challenge from 'Color Throwdown #529'
which seemed perfect!



I played with the newly released Craftangles  liquid watercolours to create this background. It is amazing how vibrant they are and how bright they stay even after drying.
I first die cut a panel using the Altenew canvas die. 
I found it too big for my card base so I further die cut it using 
Simon Says Stamp stitched rectangle die.
I then smooshed liquid watercolours with the help of a piece of acetate, onto the background.
While it dried, I die cut the different layers of the Altenew 'Fantasy Floral' die set. 
I decided not to use the bottom layer of the flower to add some interest. 
I added a touch of colour to the leaves and adhered them all to the background panel 
using 3D foam tape.
Once done, I adhered this panel to a black card base. 
I love doing this as it really makes the card pop!
The card looked so pretty, I didn't want to add anything to it, not even a sentiment.


I hope you enjoyed this card. I'd love to hear from you so do leave me a comment.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a great day!
