WT851 = Use Water in Some Way - I used water with Magicals for the hydrangea petals, and my background is smooshed using ink spritzed with water.
I took a smooshed background (probably Oxide inks) from my UFO box stamped and heat embossed the collage image on top.
I sprinkled and spritzed blue, pink, mauve, and purple Magicals on a piece of mixed media, going for much denser colours than in the background. When dry, I punched out hydrangea petals with the old Martha Stewart punch I've had for years and glued them onto the stamped flower.
I bordered with white and then with black shimmer cs (to echo the shimmer of the Magicals) and added a heat embossed sentiment below.
It's hard to photograph and capture the shimmer but in real life the hydrangea is very shimmery.

Love the punched-out blue on the collage background. Just the colour of blue one sees outside so many houses over in the west here, must be the type of soil.

My favourite flower and we can’t grow them here. I used to love them in the gardens in the UK when growing up. Your card is exquisite and fav’d. TFS. Happy day
