Hello everyone! Happy weekend! This is my submission for IC210, which was a fantastic one!!! I had more fun looking at the awesome glass pieces in the Etsy TZaddishop, but I was inspired by this one: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php...ng_id=30937226
I tried to create a shiny bg by using the faux stone technique using T Holtz Alcohol Inks and copper mixative. Then I stamped my images from the newly released Our Daily Bread designs set, With Heartfelt Sympathy with Archival Sepia. I overstamped that just slightly off with Archival Jet Black. I was trying for the faux embossed effect.... with the shine of the paper the photo makes it look just out of focus... but I like the two stamped together because these are open designs and the overstamping just off gave some "fill" to the cat tails and dragonfly. I hope you like it!

What an amazing card, Grace. I can feel the warmth and love just jumping off my screen. The colors are awesome, that 'topper' above your image is great. Just absolutely gorgeous!
