My card today is for two challenges. First one being the 500th challenge for the TLC. That is a lot of challenges. Sabrina asked us to do the etching technique with a little added bling. I etched my image with water color pencils, and added gold trim. The next challenge Angie is honoring tessaduck. It's funny how we became splitcoast friends...blame it on her favorite team...The Ducks and my team the Badgers. I've been know to watch ESPN to see what her team has done on a Saturday. She is also our leader on the favorites thread every Sunday. She has everything organized for us, and also knows how to clean up mistakes I can make.
I chose this card to case....DTGD14justwritedesigns steadfast spirit by tessaduck at Splitcoaststampers
I sketched the flowers and used neutral colors.Water colored them and added etching with water color pencils. Edged the card with gold pen. Thanks Brenda for all you do for this community.

A wonderful image in unexpected colours! Your subdued palette makes this floral card perfectly workable for a guy to receive. As others have commented I love your embossed lines. Great case and great card!
