LIST: Colours (white, aqua, green), Techniques (die cutting, embossing), Elements (embossed background, aqua frame, layered oval sentiment, 3 ribbon flowers, ribbon with dots and a knot)

SPIN: faux embossing on focal layer and mat
This inspiration is so pretty and delicate - a little more pretty and delicate than my normal style, but I had fun using one die cut flower in 3 ways - as faux embossing on my double-layered backbround, as my focal flowers and then finally as leaves.

Well, this is an unexpected delight from you! I LOVE the two white layers and your faux embossing with the same floral as the main pieces looks fabulous. That soft blue looks so wonderful with the white -- I am really loving this combo lately and you just sealed the deal -- my new fav colors together. The floral die cuts are so delicate and sweet yet bolder than the inspiration card. And your creativity never ceases -- I wouldn't have guessed the leaves were the same die if I hadn't read your description. Awesome card, Ardyth. I love it!
Ardyth, this is such a pretty case of Brenda's inspiration card. The faux embossed layers are so creative and the colors you used are so crisp against the white background. This is one of my favorites of yours.

Wow. You totally rocked that flower. I love the colors. I didn't even realize there was a faux embossing technique, but I am going to go try it today! Beautiful card/case, Ardyth. Hugz

This is lovely, Ardyth! That was a lot of flowers to cut, but the faux embossed BG really takes it up a notch! I love your shading of the blue flowers and leaves!
