This is for CC365 to use Vanilla, Wild Wasabi and Blusing Bride. I punched all the flowers and foliage using vanilla cardstock and colored washed my flowers with pink reinker and the foliage with wasabi reinker. I love the softness of the wasabi ink on the vanilla and think it mixes well with the pinks. I used the Belleek embossing technique Judy challenged us with a few weeks ago in the TLC challenge. I think the effect is such a winner for softening an embossed pattern. You can check out my color washtechnique on my blog if you would like to see photos of how I color the cardstock. http://kittiekraft.typepad.com/kitti...h-flowers.html
