For today's challenge found here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I chose some Basic Grey paper (Lucky) and went from there. The mosiac glass on the candle holders reminded me of polished stone. The layer is very pretty in real life, but hard to capture in a photograph. I used Marigold Morning, Vintage Violet and Encore Copper re-inkers. The cherish is on dimensionals and layered on the lg. oval punch on the inside of the card.

Shelly, this is so elegant and gorgeous!! I see we both used the polished stone technique, but yours is so much prettier than mine; how do you get that soft muted effect? That basic grey paper is to die for!

This is drop dead gorgeous! The colors are fabulous and the polished stone with that stamp design is perfect, not to mention that BG paper being perfect too!

I don't know what it is about this card....maybe I just have candles on the brain now or maybe it is the name of your card but it just looks like a flickering candle is casting light upon your card! It is so elegant and gorgeous...Were you burning a candle next to your card....just out of the picture? LOL!
