Since the Free For All & MIX challenges go together, I think this card will cover both challenges & for the MIX, I used ink, embossing powder & liquid pearls for my mediums.
The large flower heart was white embossed on white c/s, die cut w/ the matching die & 2 colors of purple ink were sponged over it while the die was still in place (I wanted to keep the edge white). I die cut a couple of small hearts and white embossed the greeting on the dk purple one. A couple of die cut banners were added underneath. T
he flower was made using 3 geranium leaf punches, the petals were sponged, curled & crinkled then glued together w/ a gem in the center. After attaching all the card layers, I added a die cut fringe border & liquid pearls all around.
Thanks so much for looking! It's just been posted on my blog: The Write Stuff

This card captured my attention immediately! LOVE the nontraditional colors and all the fabulous embellishments. The liquid pearls alone had to take quite a while. Beautiful!
