For this week's crisp maria point with embossing color challenge, using this week's sketch for the layout. I went crazy with the embossing. I embossed the quilt bg panel over burlap, embossed the blue strip with an ef, and heat embossed the daisy and sentiment. Enough?
It also works for the word play dd challenge:
H hexagons, happy birthday
E embossing
N nesties
S spellbinders, sentiment strip, secret garden, scoring

This is really a super card, Brenda! I love your hexagons. I know that background took a long time because I've done that once myself. And the colors are great!

This jumps off the page Brenda - it is absolutely stunning. Those colours are wonderful together, but you bumped it up with the dp behind your hexagons - love it. tfs

Wow, Brenda, this must have taken some time to create. Look at all those hexagons! yikes, you must have the patience of someone. This is a grand card done in equally grand style. Nice work.
