Made this for a friend of mine who wanted to know what it looked like when you embossed craft ink with Iridescent Ice embossing powder. The flowers are stamped in black craft and the sentiment is stamped in Lavender Lace craft ink; both are heat embossed with II. Sparkly in real life! I think it would have been better NOT to emboss the word "everything" though, the letters are a little hard to read.
I watercolored the flowers with Lavender Lace and Barely Banana, cut 'em out, and stuck them on a strip of Barely Banana CS. Simple card, maybe it needs a little something more but I have limited time to stamp since I'm now having to keep an eagle eye on our new puppy to make sure she doesn't eat the house plants or get into anything else she shouldn't.

I like this! The colors look great together and that sparkly 'happy' rocks!

Sometimes what you think is 'simple' is really stunning! The color combo's you've used here really work for me, I love the tone on tone for the sparkly happy!
