I loved the colors, square shape, and overlapping images.
I started with white cardstock and PTI's Turning a New Leaf set. I began by stamping the darkest shade (Olive Pastel) and clear embossed. Next I stamped Aquamarine and Cadmium and clear embossed those as well.
Finally I over-stamped with Versamark and clear embossed those leaves. The final step was to sponge over the entire card with several shades of green to bring out the design.
I finished with SRM Sticker sentiments placed in a similar position as the design on the envelope. The entire panel was then trimmed to 4" and attached to an aquamarine card base.

Great results with the embossing and sponging, thanks for the order of embossing the colors...it really helps! It's a great take on the Wild Ginger envelope.
