This is for the CAS challenge. I cheated a tad, but I consider my sequins to be a set - giggles. I was doing this in between Thanksgiving ... and then tried to get a picture with the sun already around! I watercoloured my image then embossed with clear embossing powder, allowing me to get close to the edges with the turquoise colour. I read about this technique on a card by Maura (beesmom). It is beautiful IRL - wonderful sparkle. For the F4A challenge, I made this a birthday card for a very special friend who has a birthday in December.
I hope you will come on over and join in with us for the Clean and Simple Challenge this week. aplaceforkia
