Giveaway winner and a reposted blog post

 Hi crafty friends! I have a winner for my extra Happy Halloween Banner die set!
Congratulations Denise Bryant!!
Your name was picked from the hat!!
Please send me an email with your address and I'll get a crafty package out to you.
 
Like many other crafters, I am having serious issues with Blogger. They are unpublishing most of my new posts and even some older blog posts. It seems that behind the scenes, my blog is getting hit with some kind of spam/spider/bots and it's triggering Blogger to remove my posts for "Community Guidelines violations". I appeal the decision and MOST of the time my blog post is put back, but not all, so I wanted to repost a card that was removed months ago and I just can't get it reinstated.

This water colored floral card was originally posted in September 2022:

 
I colored these diecuts with a fun technique called Ink Smooshing. And it's pretty much as it sounds, just apply the ink to your surface (I have a Tim Holtz glass media mat), spritz with water and then smoosh your paper over the ink. Lift and dab around until you get the look you want. In this case, I used Distress Oxide inks.
I used Tim Holtz Brushstroke Flowers #2 dies. At first I was intimidated on how to put these together, but Tim is brilliant and there is a faint embossed outline on the main flowers that shows where the accent pieces go. Made it really easy!
