I streaked purple then green dye ink over white card with a piece of sponge until I had the balance of colour I wanted, then stamped. The stamped image wasn't very black so I added a few dabs of Diamond Glaze to the leaves and petals for a bit of shine. Clear or black embossing would have had the same effect but by the time I figured that out the image had dried!

Lovely! Wonderful Background! The colors are great together, and the silhouette image over it is my personal favorite way to do the sunset style cards...Very nice!

Parke, thanks so much for the welcome! I absolutely love your CAS designs. Most of what I do are CAS designs. After we're back from vacation next week, I'm determined to learn how to post my cards, so I, too, can have a gallery.

I know I have been 'away' for ages but how did I miss this beauty?
I love PB silhouette stamps and you have used this image to make a super CAS card. Love the colours in your bg.
