Here's my card for the Tuesday Throwdown #TT333 which is to make a "thinking of you" card.
I started with a piece of watercolor paper, sponging 3 different Distress inks (Twisted Citron, Wilted Violet and Mermaid) I spritzed the poinsettia stamp with water and pressed it into the inks giving the white shadow look and let it dry. Next I inked the stamp with Versafine Onyx Black and stamped it close to the shadow image. The sentiment panel is a MFP stamp, heat embossed with white ep on a black panel. The layers were all die cut with Lil Inker stitched rectangles.
Thanks for stopping by and make it a great day whatever you're doing.

Carol, I really like that shadow effect you achieved here. Great choice of colored inks also. With the white o=against the black it really makes a statement and that is what you want to do with a "thinking of you" card. Very, very nice. Enjoy your day.
Gorgeous card, Carol, beautiful background and I love how you've created the shadow for the image. xx
Love the way you made the white shadow, it looks fabulous! Great colours blending and love the white sentiment on the black banner, it's so striking!
I love the shadow effect you've made here Carol and the colours are gorgeous.

What a cool technique! Was wondering how you got that neat shadow. I need to play more with my distress inks and watercolor paper.
Very fine card, love the gorgeous colours and your stamped flower looks gorgeous. xx ♥[aNNie]

I love the bright color combo. The image having the shadow is a nice detail and as always, you frame your images so well!
That ghosting technique is really cool and I love how it makes your flower pop.
This turned out just beautiful.....Lis
Awesome background, and liking the way you've got the shadow treatment done. (I've yet to be very successful trying this water technique.) A great silhouette to create this nice look too. TFS
Beautiful colors!!
This card is so cool Carol! I love how you did your background with the inks but I really love how your stamped your flower in white and then in black, loving the white shadow! I also love the card base, it looks like you inked that too. Love this one! Hugs, Brenda
