YAY! Today starts the Dare to get Dirty challenges! Lydia is starting us off with one of her favorites. Can you guess what it is?
I got a late start today, but when I checked out the gallery for this challenge, I saw Sabrina's gorgeous card and wanted to try the technique she used. This is her gorgeous card: DTGD13 Christmas Cardinal by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers
The pears are stamped with Perfect Medium and embossed with gold EP. I used distress inks with water to paint the colors. I like that this card is neither masculine or feminine and should be fairly easy to use.
Thanks for starting us out Lydia! DTGD is so much FUN!!!

Kathleen, everything about this card is outstanding! Your embossed and colored pears are SO pretty, the barn siding bg is so soft and pretty and I love that ribbon. Into my faves.

You go Kathleen! This is fabulous! Love the embossing and watercolor together. The image is perfect to "pear" up with the wooden fence too *giggle*. Good luck with all the challenges.
