Our Colour Dare Challenge for #414 is an inspiration photo with Autumn colours. You can use Black, White and all metallics and neutrals. You are invited to participate in this challenge too. Go to the link for Colour Dare #414 and add your entry.

I am still playing with my new distress oxide inks and pulled out all the colours that I thought would match this colour inspiration.

Then I plonked each of the colours down on the All-purpose Mat, 
as shown below. Then spritzed with water.

Then I put the 12x12 sheet of  White Daisy Cardstock down onto the mat and smooshed it around.

After the above, I waited a little for it to dry... then added a little extra ink on the mat and spritzed some more water and smooshed it again. This is the finished paper below.

After it dried a little I cut off 4.5 inches off one side and then cut out with Floral Background Thin Cuts

To finish the simple card off, I put Black Cardstock 4.25x5.5 inches on the cards from the White Cards & Envelopes Value Pack using Tombow® Permanent Adhesive. Then  I adhered the front coloured overlay Floral Background Thin Cuts cut out then stuck down with the Dual-tip Permanent Glue Pen.

    Wow, Wow, and wow!! You and I had the same thought for this challenge. I saw all the colors flowing into each other. You used oxide inks differently than me. you used water I didn't. I probably should have considering yours looks amazing!! The die cut on top is a perfect add for the card. My favorite part however, it is left sentiment-less. it is now ready for any occasion. genius!!
