I combined two challenges today for my card. First for Dawn's challenge to take a color and show different shades of the color. Our Queen for this week is BarbieP. I had favored this card last week. She has a beautiful gallery, and always has kind comments on everyones cards. Congrats! Barb. I used an image from Digital Two for Tuesday for my image. Colored it with copics, and added some black liquid pearls. Made the flowers from ms hydreaga punch, and added buttons for the centers. I embossed each color with the su embossing border and attached them to the card front. tfl
Enjoy your reign Queen Barb.

Linda, an elegant and classy card ....like Barb is herself. Wonderful ombre of the 3 scalloped, embossed bands with the beautifully colored retro lady image.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

How did I miss this card..it's fabulous! I love the vintage lady so like the style of Barb....those strips of pink in the ombre technique are really wonderful, so pretty! And gotta love the black liquid pearl accents..very creative little detail.
