I should start this with telling you that I do not actually own any of this week's colors in the challenge prompt, and so I spent some time playing with distress oxide inks blending to get the peachy shade letting the yellow and red be very small parts of the background. This actually looks pretty close to my print screen I printed of the colors on copy paper in real life but, on this monitor the bazzill seems to have picked up a strange brownish tint. ( it's a photo processing glitch, probably the reds in it) I also added some clear wink of stella on the petals of those blooms but, that is not visible even in person. that mulberry was thirsty and sucked it all up. lol. Thanks for this challenge Jeanne & tfl.

Ooo, your mix of DOX inks turned out beautifully over the embossed background! That sentiment always cracks me up, and it's anchored so nicely with the pretty roses. Lovely card Stacy!

I love your bg - I think you did a great job with the colors!!! And, as for that sentiment, I think I need that. I'm always trying to please everyone and maybe having this sentiment would help that problem. You did a great job all the way around with this. :>)
