This card is for Color Challenge 167 - Soft Sky, Certainly Celery, and Blue Bayou.
My card base is five and a half inches square. It is from Die Cuts With a View embossed cards and this one is Friends. I took my Certainly Celery pad and lightly rubbed over it to accent the embossing. The stamp (a not-yet-released stamp from Rubbernecker!) was inked up with my Certainly Celery and Soft Sky ink pads. I then sponged Soft Sky around the edges and somewhat on to the image, then sponged Blue Bayou over that on the very edge. I used the speckly stamp from Itty Bitty Backgrounds to stamp over the flowers. I used the Petite Oval Nestabilities for all of my mats and images. The brads are by Bazzil and I think they're a perfect match for Soft Sky. I also added a Dew Drop in the center of the large flower. The main image and the sentiment are raised with Pop Dots.
Thanks so much for looking!

Lynette this is beautiful! I love that you swiped the celery ink over the embossed card and the stamp image is so pretty! I like that dew drop on the flower too! Great card!
