Edited to add:
I just realized that I referred to cardstock and ink as going gray. I have edited them to be correct now. I guess I have had going gray for way too many years and typed it without even realizing it!
For todays WT challenge Basic Gray. I love this new color and have not used it enough. The diamond stamp is by All Night Media and was stamped twice across the card meeting up at the points in the middle. I Inked it up in Going Gray ink and kissed off with the flourish stamp before stamping on the Whisper White CS. The rest of the flourishes have been stamped off at least once before filling in the white space. I edged the diamonds with a sliver zig painty pen and also the Bravo Burgandy layer. The Fleur was embossed with Sterling Silver EP 3 times for the faux metal look, cut out and mounted on dimensionals. The cherish is also embossed in Sterling Silver EP.
