This card is for today's color challenge and yesterday's Technique Lover's Challenge. I used my Xyron to add adhesive to a piece of white cs and then covered it with tin foil. I die cut it with the Nestabilities Labels Three die and then embossed that piece with the Finial Press EF. I sponged on Stazon ink and then wiped the surface with a tissue moistened with alcohol. This removed the ink from the top of the embossed images, but left the green on the base. The bride was stamped with Versamark ink onto Pretty in pink CS and embossed with Pretty Pearl Powder. I colored the image with watercolor crayons and a white gel pen.
All of the going gray layers were sponged lightly with Platnium Shimmer Paint to give it some elegance. I had not used the Platnium before and it's more opaque than the other two, so it covered the gray color more completely than I expected. The ribbon started out white, but I sponged it with Pretty in Pink ink
