Absolutely fun challenge to-day. Use your reinkers. I chose to do polished stone. Haven't done it for a while so it took a couple of trys until I got it the way I wanted. The image in the centre is called black magic I think. Stamp a bold image using white pigment ink then dry with heat gun. Colour with prisma pencils and doodle some interesting accents and dots. It looked kinda empty so I added my most favourite die cut (at the moment) from Cheery Lynn. The oval was heat embossed with gold powder.

Very elegant! I like all the subtle details you have here, like the marbleized background, that black magic (still need to try it!), and the gold embossed frame.
Your comment on my birthday card this morning made me laugh ('holy crud')! THanks for giving me a giggle.
