My little brother is turning 46....guess that tells you something about me too! Today's challenge was to use No Fall Colors....I decided to go with scraps only. Luckily I've been participating in the HYCCT challenges all month and have I got scraps! I have had this card bumbling around in my brain since last Saturday's Inspiration challenge from Agate Christina's Etsy site where I saw these earrings http://www.etsy.com/listing/10149737...en-striped-and. I thought they'd be the perfect inspiration for a geometric Inlaid/Inset embossing technique card. These are time consuming, but easy cards to make....you just get a base and glue a bunch of scraps to it then run it through your Big Shot in the Square Lattice (or other solid pattern) ef and you end up with the inlaid look. I went with mostly green scraps, but also had the teal & indigo scraps from another project. The only piece I made specifically for this project was the birthday sentiment which I stamped in Indigo, punched then popped over a piece of teal twill that I'd had in the reject pile!
