I've been lucky enough to win some random-draw prizes in challenges lately, and the text and dragonfly stamps here (by Stamp It Australia) are from a set I chose with a store voucher.
I made the background with distress inks which I then soaked with Perfect Pearls water and let them run together. After stamping, I sprayed on some white mist ( Diylusions White Linen) - it goes on bright and clear at first but then fades a lot , so I'm not really happy with it. If you have any tips on a better brand of white ink spray, I'd be really grateful!
Finally, I gave the base card some texture using an embossing folder.
I'd like to enter:
Colour Throwdown - I actually made this card specifically for this challenge, after seeing the colour palette this morning. But now I look at it and think my colours are slightly out. This always happens to me when I do colour challenges!

Well done on your wins! Lovely card here too! I tend to use white acrylic diluted with water ... TH distress stain (Picket Fence) works well too. If I use the spray mist it does fade and I think it's probably because the ink blending is still wet
Wow! Your card is gorgeous!! Love your watercolour background:). Thanks for playing along with us at Little Red Wagon! :)
Went to check, I've got the same white spray, but mine I've felt worked, mostly used as snow on dark blue paper background, not with inks. Even though the background didn't turn out as you'd envisioned I think it looks fAntastic!
Thanks for joining our wings challenge at allsorts Tracy x
