This is for Color Challenge 428. Gina K Apple Green for Lucky Limeade, PTI Aqua Mist for Pool Party and my neutral this week is PTI Spring Moss. I know, you don't care, you've given up on my not throwing in an extra color. Still, I feel always feel compelled to confess to the entirely obvious. And while I am on the subject of the entirely obvious - may I just say XYRON? Why did I not buy this thing a year ago, when I bought my first intricate die? Why is there not a standard procedure here on SCS, wherein the Card Police come to your house to catch you hunched over some complicated flourish with your Tombow Mono-Multi and stage a Xyron intervention?
I mean, I might still be gluing that black heart border down. even if you are looking at this a week after I posted it.
Of course I had to cover a good bit of my lovely Memory Box Cherish Border die with my focal image, which does, BTW, include this week's dessert (paper piercing). But don't worry, you can now count on seeing it on a lot of cards in future. A lot. (Any and all complaints on that score can be directed to the nice folks at Xyron.)
Thanks for looking!

Wonderful design with a great combination of patterned DPs and your collage type stamping. (I tried a Xyron with die cuts, but I hated getting all the sticky stuff out of the spaces. I like my fat liquid glue "stick" for my intricately cut pieces.)

fabulous card... I had to smile while reading your description....I have a few pieces that I should have brought out my xyron, but I don't have two many intricate dies... But I can' definitely see why it would make a big difference...pretty heart die btw, love the scallops and piecing
