Three challenges in one. The new Queen this week is Sharon(smadson) who has a lovely gallery which was fun to go through. I chose this CARD to CASE. The F4A was to use "sweet treats" images....gumballs. The Mix9 was to use metal. Since I have no sheet metal lying around, I used kitchen tin foil, glued to CS and run through with an EF.... then colored with alcohol inks(those messy things, I hate). My hands now need Soft Scrub and a scouring pad to come clean. : )
Congratulations, Sharon....enjoy your special week.

Sallie, this is truly amazing, three in One! Love your image and the gumballs. The background is just amazing and worth all you went through to make it!

Sallie -
Well, you may have gotten messy fingers, but your card is a work of art!! Love how your BG turned out with all the colors in it and that wonderful texture!! You are always thinking outside of the box, it seems to me, because you come up with such great ideas!! Love how you used this sentiment for the gumballs too!

I really love the embossed layer and as I read your description I find it's aluminum foil colored with alcohol inks. Turned out so interesting and a great back-drop for your colorful gumball machine. Yummy.

Fabulous BG! And it really pops against that CS! Adorable card!
