YEAH! Lauren Meader has a Color Challenge! MTCC06

I am so excited to try these colors together! Great pick Lauren!

This card was inspired by looking through my large supply of patterned paper. I bought this paper ages ago because I knew one day I would NEED it! Today is the day. In fact most of the supplies on this card are oldies but goodies and they all just came together. The ribbon is a sheer olive from Hobby Lobby that has white stitching in the middle (saved me from pulling out my sewing machine!). The sentiment is a sticker set I've had FOREVER and it says Thank You in several languages.

On this flower, I used a technique that was an experiment of mine. I love the look of embossing but I love the look of colored ink. Instead of trying to stamp Versamark over my stamped image, I stamped the flower with pigment ink and then IMMEDIATELY after stamping, I put the image in clear embossing powder. Just enough powder sticks so when you turn the heat gun on, your image gets just the right amount of shine. I love this flower with the PTI button flower in the center with two tiny pearls. Cutting it out so I can pop dot it is a bear but oh so worth it. I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with. I only hope they had as much fun as I did!
