Have you played along with The Flower Challenge #60 yet? There's still time and we have a fun color challenge this month: Turquoise!! Our team has really featured this color beautifully, and we have a wonderful Guest Designer this month, too! You don't want to miss Kailash's beautiful creations!
I found myself reaching for my Distress inks, and little slip of acetate, for my reminder card... hope it sparks a little creative mess in YOUR craft studio, too!
After smooshing a bit of Oxide ink onto my craft mat, I spritz it with water, and pick up the water-y ink with a piece of acetate from packaging, and adding it to a panel of water color card stock. LOTS of Oxide ink first, then dried, and repeated the process with original Distress Inks - it will be seen as darker, more intense color here...

Waste anything??? I think not hence my bowl full of snippets. I see yours were well used on this card. Love how clean it is yet full of interest and color. Simply perfect.
Swoon! Jo x
Hey yourself! This is fresh, clean and fabulous!
Nothing like a good smoosh! Such a happy splash of flowers!
LOVE this very modern design, Michele. Those flowers are gorgeous from your smooshed background. And I love all the bits you've used ... it's truly a STUNNING card! xx
Wow! I'm drawn in by the gorgeous turquoise but then there's so much other beauty -- that die, the dots (no it isn't silly) -- simply wonderful
Brilliant and modern take on the 'turquoise' challenge my friend!
You are the queen of use it up and do so beautifully! Thanks for sharing this lovely card. :)
LOVE the texture you created on these dainty flowers!
Wow! Such beautiful flowers, Michele! Wouldn't it be fun to be in a shower of these beautiful blooms!
So very pretty, love the design layout and those tiny little centres x. The way you've done those little flowers look absolutely beautiful Michele x.
I love the way you playfully arranged those darling little blooms, Michele. The smooshing colored them beautifully with lights and darks.
Totally BREATHTAKING design!!! LOVE this fun technique and your beautiful card!
Beautiful. The blooms work well with the font of the sentiment.
Wow!! Now that is something unique... Wonderful Michele!
Such a gorgeous turquoise flower card, Michele! The ink smooshed turquoise flowers look so fresh on the solid white card base. The dimension of some of the flowers and the tiny bits for embellishment add so much interest to this clean and simple card! Love it!

Very clever and very COOL ink smooshing, Michele...I love the effects with your technique and can't wait to try it for myself! Thanks for the inspiration ~ xx
Love how you splattered the little turquoise flowers, Michele! And the little dots are filling the gap perfectly!!! Beautiful CAS card!
Oh, YES, this is what I almost did for my card but with the EH Mod Floral BG. GMTA!!
I've never thought to use both kinds of Distress Inks together Michele, but I love the look you got in that beautiful background. The flowers are so pretty cut out of it! The flower centers certainly do make the best embellishment, I would have never thought that is what that was. lol I love this CAS card! Hugs, Brenda
Sheer gorgeousness! That is all.
