I loved Charlene's technique on her Peaceful Thoughts Card and wanted to give it a try. I changed my swirly background and sponged in three shades of pink. I used a baby-wipe to wipe away the ink from the embossed swirls. I added lots of stickles to coordinate with the sparkle of the Iridescent Ice EP.
I second all of Beth's comments about Charlene. I love her work and appreciate the time she takes to comment and inspire others. Thanks for the inspiration.

Stef, this is so sweet and pretty! I love the shades of pink you used and the black with it just makes it pop. Your sparkly heart is so pretty! Thank you for honoring me with your case of my card today. I've long been an admirer of your work.
