Shirley (WannaBcre8tive) issued the challenge for the Twisted Sisters this week, which was to used a 1/2 or 3/4 circle and at least 2 squares and colors of blue and brown. I so love these colors together. Please play along.....just put TSC0422 in your keywords!
I wanted also to do the F4A16 challenge which was to use orange. I added an orange prima and two orange candles to the card.
I love this embedded embossing technique!!!! So very cool!!!!
What do you think?
