Trying to use up my Mauve Mist card stock! This was inspired by SU Demo Joan Ramler, as well as a SCS'er, I think it was kmjenkyns? If you know who you are, please let me know! Even with three layers of color on it, the Shimmery White still shimmers and adds a rich luster to this card.

Very pretty. Would you mind explaining what colors of paper and inks are used where to create this stunning effect. I bet it is even prettier in person. TIA

Thanks Donna...I should have explained that in my description! The base CS is Mauve Mist stamped with Paisley in Mauve Mist ink. For the DTP, I used Shimmery White CS, stamped repeatedly with Almost Amethyst pad first, then Lavender Lace, and then the Pink Pastel Petal Point chalk over the top. Then I stamped the flowers and leaves first in Lavender Lace for the shadow effect, then black flowers over that. Make sense?
