Joanne's challenge to the CCEE Stampers this week was to focus on the sentiment.
I love these long thin designs from ODBD, and chose to use one of them, with an embedded embossing background.
Base card and main layer are a pearlescent blue card. I used MFT die-namics for the sun and rainbow, and a Sizzix die for the flowers, embossing with SU lattice folder. Grass and mat layers are BG Sugar Rush. Sentiment stamped on white card with Versafine Black, corners rounded. The butterfly is not embedded, and has a couple of dots of Liquid Pearl.
If you'd like to focus on the sentiment, share your card by linking on the blog or by using CCEE1212 in the galleries .
As the colour topaz ranges from light to deep blue, I'm also including this as a submission for the ODBD 4th Anniversary challenge to use topaz or aqua and a favourite ODBD sentiment.

Sabrina, I love all the images in the bg supporting the wonderful sentiment! The embossing makes the bg fabulous, and even makes the sentiment more important! Great work!

What a beauty! Your embedded background is so well done and truly is such a perfect showcase for the wonderful sentiment.

I love your embedded technique...one of my favorites. I really need to get that embossing folder as it has such wonderful texture. Love the verse and your super card, Sabrina.
