This is for Lori's challenge...ombre background. Using my least favorite tool...the dreaded brayer. Stamped butterfly and sentiment with embossing ink....embossed. Brayed the bg. Went over and recolored some areas. Attached button, bow and outlined with the gold pen. TFL

I just don't how you do it, Mrs. TV Personality! What a gorgeous ombre design in one of my favorite colors, teal. Love the image and that added pin/brooch you added to the BF. Outstanding.

Now that is fabulously gorgeous! I am with Ann(e) above there on the colour! It looks amazing and you did good with that brayer (got one, can't use it). The darkened areas in the butterfly really contrast beautifully against the white. Love the gems, love the bow and love the gold outline. Terrific card!

Oh Linda, take my breath away on this card! You really did an amazing job on the ombre effect and what a stunning card you are sending down for HYCCT in this beauty.
