Additional note added 6/16: I chose the baby wipe technique for the gallery but in truth, it's more like the striped wipe, which I cannot find in the technique list.
In every faith since time began, there has been a belief in treating others the way we'd like to be treated. Basically, love each other. Even when it's hard. Loving is never a waste of time. And that is what our teaparty recipients, Heena and Gautam, have demonstrated. They have made sure their community in Florida has been cared for and, most importantly, have received their Covid vaccinations. Sounds like they are two of the best people ever born! Reading about them has made me teary with gratitude. I will put a 'thank you' stamp inside.
I used today's color combination: blackberry bliss, calypso coral, and metallic gold. I love this combo (thanks, Mary) and blackberry bliss has especially been a favorite. I chose to do a baby wipe swipe with the reinkers, making sure that the colors blended somewhat. The sentiment is heat embossed in gold, the foliage is cut from a textured gold paper and a few gold Nuvo Drops is all that is needed.
On a lighter note, I'm wondering when SU is going to develop colors with the word 'cha cha' or 'waltz' or 'foxtrot.' They have mambo, calypso, tango, pirouette, twist....they need more terpsichorean names.

Absolutely GORGEOUS. Your swiped bg is so beautifully vivid and bright. Love the gold embossing and white leaves. Perfect design for the Perfect Sentiment. Fabulous card.

Gorgeous colours, beautiful texture in the background from the swiping. Almost feathery looking.
We listen to a radio quiz which is university dons vs students, both general knowledge and specialist subjects. There's a list round when they are given a topic and have to list as many things as they can think of in one minute. One of them last week was classic ballroom dancing and they did not do very well with it.
