Today was such a fun day for me... I got to stamp several cards! This card is for today's WT184, to use silhouettes, and also fits dirty girl's setp. central theme challenge CT0908- use lots of color, and Product and Materials focus- Sponging with Ink.
I stamped this image in VersaMark and embossed in black on an unknown parchment looking marbled paper in a soft yellow tone. I then sponged So Saffron all around the center of where I wanted my sun, and radiating out from that. I masked the sun with a sticky circle, then went out a ways with Regal Rose, then bordering blue, then blue bayou. On the bottom, I sponged Always Artichoke. These colors on the marbled base I began with were a perfect match for Groovy Guava and Blue Bayou so I matted with them, and mounted on a GPW base. I used my cuttlebug to emboss the florals on each side, and stamped the sentiment from "My Heart Stamps for you" in Blue Bayou.
I hope you like it.. and thanks for looking!

WOW! This is stunning! Love your photo set up with your gorgeous mums in the bg. Your sponged sunset with your silhouette flowers are just gorgeous and love the bits of dry embossing on the bg.
