SSS Watercolor Hydrangea Card | Mission Gold | Color Throwdown Challenge #412

Hey everyone! I haven't been feeling too great the last couple of days, and dragging myself after the 4 munchkins has taken all my energy - hence me being WAY late with my card for this week's Color Throwdown challenge.

You can check out the challenge HERE <-----click! to see what the rest of the team created plus play along if you can!

Rather than just make a simple card I did a bunch of watercoloring and layering and playing around - I've had the general idea for this card for almost a week now - so I just went with it rather than attempt to come up with something new LOL.

I used the Simon Says Stamp Hydrangea Blooms stamp set along with the You Matter combo - I've been meaning to combine all these together ever since I got the bundle a couple of weeks ago (so this card has been in the back of my mind for a while now).

I heat embossed the background and the flowers with detail white embossing powder then used my Mission Gold watercolours to color them all in. I combined that with watercolour die cut leaves and vellum and an ombre sponged die cut sentiment and sequins of course!

After putting so much on the outside of the card I kept the inside simple with another watercolour hydrangea and that was it!

To see how this card came together check out my video below:
