AUG08VSNMINIE Ghosting Graduation

Photo Details

Poster: deipara

This is my card for the Aug 08 VSN Mini E - Ghosting challenge.

I stamped the flowers in Pink Passion on Glossy, then stamped the Dahlia in Versamark. I used my brayer to coat the piece with Pink Passion ink.

It's layered on Only Orange and Faux Stitched around the outside.

The sentiment is from Papertrey.

What a lovely card! I love the pink and the orange! I also like how you used the ghosting technique for the focal image and not just a background!!!!

This is really pretty - every card I see made with this set reminds me how much I NEED to get that set! Now if I could just remember the next time I place an order.
