To create the central panel, I used a smoosh technique. I put ink from 3 SU inkpads (Mint, Bordering Blue and Bliss Blue) on an acrylic block, spritzed with water and smooshed a snippet of watercolor paper on it a few times. After letting the paper dry, I added the sentiment (All Night Media). I cut the flowers (from a new Darice die I recently got) out of a snippet of black, and matted the panel on black, then on a cream colored card.
The card is for these challenges:
Taylored Expressions Share the Joy #16 -- CAS

Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge -- smoosh
Die Cut Divas -- something new
Artistic Impressions -- ATG with twist of winter blues
