This is for Lori McAree's Challenge. I wanted to keep this card CAS so stamped the vertical brushstroke shadow in calypso ink . . I had definitely OVERinked my pad as the colors came out incredibly DARK! Still I forged ahead. Stamped the sentiment in gold and embossed with gold detail power - oops - couldn't even see the word celebrate. Decided to see if I could salvage this so wet several layers of paper towel, pressed it onto my surface and lifted - I had to do that 3 times to be able to see my embossed word. The toweling left behind quite an interesting texture pattern on my brushstroke, something that was a pleasant surprise. to finish I added a scattering of gemstones.

This turned out beautiful, Linda. The toweling left behind an awesome texture! Who knew I love the dark, bold colors. Makes it really stand out. Great job!!
