Black Cardstock Card Challenge

I rarely use black cardstock in my designs unless it is for an accent.  In fact I mostly have it for Halloween bats and spider webs.  My neice, Lani, decided our next card challenge should be to create something using black cardstock.

 

I started by embossing the Leaf Canopy stamps from Altenew with Nuvo white embossing powder.  This was a multi-step process in order to cover the whole background.  Then I used Prima Metallic Watercolors to fill in the leaves.  I thought about filling in the background with white watercolor, but in the end I left the black so the colors would pop.
