Hello and Welcome to October!
It's Happy Little Stampers Watercolour Challenge Day
and we have an awesome Option for you this month.
It's Tropical and what's the perfect flower for the Tropics?
Orchids of course - and that is the way I headed here.
I received the beautiful SU Climbing Orchid stamp set
as part of an early birthday gift - so perfect timing.
The background is stenciled with
Little Birdie Frosty Fizz Embossing/Texture Paste
and when heated puffs up beautifully.
I then started on the orchids with
Wow Blush Embossing Powder and coloured them with
blending Lindy's Clam Bake Beige and Cape Cod Coral
on my glass mat and spraying with water.
These were fussy cut and popped on to a
Memory Box Branch.
The leaves are inked with Tim's Oxide Pealed Paint
and the centres lightly coloured.
Had a bottle of shimmer left over so decided to add
a touch of colour to the background
as I thought it needed a little something.
Sentiment is from the set.
Finished by adhering to coloured grainy card stock.
Pop over to Our Blog to see what the other Designers created
and come join in this month.
Love to see you in the Gallery.
Thanks for dropping in - till next time

Such a beautiful design Ina and I love the added dimension of the pattern in the background!
Stunning! My favorite flower, next to the thistle of course! Such a dainty die and beautifully colored and I love the stenciled dimensional background.
A beautifully elegant card, Ina! I love orchids! Very special!
Your card is so gorgeous with the beautiful orchid design. I love the background too.
I'm excited to learn there is heat-reactive embossing paste out there! It's a lovely bit of texture behind this beautiful orchid. Love the colours, too.
Great textured background for those beautiful orchids. Such a pretty card Ina x.
This is so pretty! I love the touch of embossing paste at the top! Happy early birthday! (whenever it is)
A great choice for a challenge topic. I love your beautiful orchid, it looks wonderful against this stunning background. Great design
