I pretty much CASE'ed this from a card I saw in the gallery the other day. I thought I had favorited it, but I didn't so I can't give credit! I'm sorry!! The lighter gray flowers are outlined with a Stardust glitter pen. I also accidentally used Daffodil Delight ink when I inked up my embossing folder (what is that technique called??) instead of So Saffron. Oops. I didn't realize it until too late so I didn't have time to redo it.

Beautiful job with the shadow technique...I love the addition of the stardust pen for just a little shimmer. The embossing technique is called faux letterpress...and it works great with this card!

Well I favorite-d it so I can credit when I case because who would have thought a silhouette stamp needed a glittery shadow. Where had this card been all my life?

This is lovely! I really like the background you created and I think this is the prettiest example of the shadowing technique I have ever seen! Thanks so much for playing along with my challenge!
