What a bright and colorful challenge this week. I have had this card made for weeks and then I go and post it late (instert egg on face here)! I decided to do the emboss resist technique. I stamped my image with Versa Mark ink and heat embossed with detail white emboss powder. I then matched up the colors in the chairs as close as I could with my SU inks and sponged the inks over the top of the flowers and stems. I then matted my image with Wild Wasabi cs using my nesties. My sentiment is from SU's Artfully Asian. I thought this card not only captured all the colors of the inspiration photo, but captured the essence of summer. Thanks so much for the honor and pleasure of being a CAS guest designer and for looking today.
